My Only Ghost

I seat myself and ponder to realize I'm without a ghost

In the absence of my ghost, how shall my mind be real?

Lonesome is my consciousness, the ghost has smoldered

To a memory of forgetfulness, never has it been becharmed

Bothered by longtime sailing on my stream of consciousness

Is it a new way to live? Or dying with awareness?

There breathes the ghost its very last breath with a new dawn

By sanity I am ignored, "my only ghost, my only spawn!"

Is it a new way to think? Or reason without awareness?
