Walkin With A Ghost

How can you miss me?

I did not know I was gone.

I am still here,

surrounding you,

keeping you safe.

You are lost

I see your tears,

but cannot seem to provide

the comfort you crave.

I am still here;

remember the smiles and the laughter?

Remember me holding your hand?

You are my everything

and I am not gone.

I am the air you breathe,

and the wind that whispers your name.

Feel me?

I am the rain

and the sun,

and maybe even the cat next door,

when he rubs himself affectionately

against your legs.

See me?

I am marking you,

you are still mine.

By your side,

I am.

I am walking with you,

and you

are walking with a ghost.
