conversation with a ghost
whisper kissing the mind
creating never a sound
every word heard clearly
images dance in the mind
vivid clarity on pale gauze
there superimposed on here
two realities cohabitating
is sanity lost or found
when otherside merges
edges blurring with this
becoming the impossible
conversation with a ghost
recollection of dreams past
reminding of hopes distant
yet still not lost forever
conversation with a ghost
reminding of the who I am
hinting to the who I wish
showing room to grow
and so the journey continues
moving forward once again
renewed in the endeavor by a
conversation with a ghost
I made a pledge to myself to write a poem a day for the entire year. Now to follow through. I preface this with a reminder; most of the poems written for this year long project will be done so spontaneously and therefore will not be edited. Bear with me on this. The project goal is to get them written over getting them perfect. Several times there will simply be the poem with no title. When that happens suggestions for a title will be welcomed in the comments.
...merges edges blurring...I love how that feels and sounds spoken aloud
ReplyDeletea wonderful balancing act between two actions throughout
a wonderful repetition and forward-moving playfulness
sensitive and slightly intense
