Ghost

silent and invisible
to naked ear and eye
waves of sadness wash over me
whispered words of early goodbye
the weight of a weightless hand
upon my shoulder
chill of fingers clasped around arm
the thrill to make me bolder
the hope of worlds beyond
waiting on the other side
I feel you waiting there for me
with your arms held wide
