HAUNTED

by sofolo

You won’t see me when I enter. The crystals of glass gliding past as I ride a sliver of moon glow through your window and crumple to your floor. You won’t see me when I rise and survey the scene. A foreign body by your side. Books you’ll never read. I slip a gossamer thumb into your slumbered mind. Let me finger through your dreams. Taste you from the inside. I’m not sure why I chose to arrive. But I’ll move an object enough to leave a mark. And now, like before. You won’t see me. I leave quietly in the night. The last thing you’d want is an encore.
