Even if we got to choose
Those we love,
I'd still choose you.
Just in a different way.

GhostlyLiving Dec 2014

Let's put it this way,
If you really wanted me to pick,
It would have made a difference.
Since nothing has changed,
My opinion doesn't matter.

Grow

Skin grows.
Hair grows.
Memories grow.
Bones grow.
Thoughts grow.
Pain grows.
Happiness grows.
Knowledge grows.

You and I, almost never grow.

Words

I used to waste my words
On the things we've been through
Though now I realize
My words are worth more
Than every thing you've
Put me through
Which is why my words
Are through with you

Paint Me

Paint me on a canvas of the most brilliant white.
Make my body of the most magnificent colors.
Paint me with the best of brushes,
the finest of paints.

Make me worth something more,
than your average human.

Stroke my face with the stillest hands.
Create my appearance and complexion with the most delicate of details.
Make my body the utmost of accurate,
please no enhancements.

Make me love myself,
make my body worth loving,
highlighting it with the most beautiful colors and shades.

Jacket

I'm looking for a jacket.
To save me from the cold.

It doesn't have to be bold,
I just don't want to be cold.

The cold is creeping inside me.
I miss what I used to be.

It bites at my skin.
I can't let it win.

Will you be my coat?

Can you save me from this cold?

Ghost of Me

Sometimes I wonder,
Should I wander?
Should I leave this world,
Should I become a ghost of my being?

Then I remember,
I already am a ghost.
My memories and feelings are existing too much
too little.
I'm living,
not living.
