Haunted...

The Witching Hour;
when the living cower,
this Ghost roams the world
in search of reason
Or is it rhyme
and images sublime
that aid him on his climb
out of the depths of despair?
and wherever his footfalls take him
he cannot shake the mistakes
he has made back in time
when he was too afraid
to speak his mind
and the people kind and otherwise
have no clue, cannot surmise
because unless you truly gaze into my eyes
none of you really see me at all
just a painting on the wall
for your amusement
here today, gone tomorrow
to voice your joys and cry for your sorrow
if you don't feel emotions
here are some of my you can borrow
for they do me little good...
