Ghost Love
What to say, what to do?
How do I say it?
When do I say it?
Will it come out right?
Would he believe it?
Is he really the one though?
Am I too young to understand love?
Or am I just placing ifs and buts?
What to say, what to do?
I pace around my castle
Whimpering with need of knowledge
but not of science or math
but this thing, this four-letter thing
I’m not used too hearing,
Let alone experiencing
Or even expressing!
What to say, what to do?
Father doesn’t approve him
My mother is afraid to go against my father
She’s afraid that if she disobeys, she will lose her title as queen
Foul Mother
Father says I should marry a prince
So kingdoms will unit
I know that’s another way of saying
”More people to control”
Wine was my savor
For if it would not have been on the table
I’ll be thrown off the title.
What to say, what to do
Its night, I’m in my room alone
Starring outside my window
with a worried look upon my face
Father said if I said his name one more time
Something will happen
I know my father will enough
To know that it was no empty threat
He wasn’t there today
He comes out under my window during
the splash of yellow and sliver moon
To smile at me, to see me
But he wasn’t there tonight.
What to say, what to do
Its morning, I’m sleepy
but once again wine is my savior
Nobody notices my sleepy eyes
For I have not slept at all
How could I sleep with such a clutched feeling
feeding in the pit in my stomach?
My eyes betrayed everyone who thought
I was clam, unafraid, happy
But as I said again, wine is my savor
And without my savor,
I would be caste out
forever
What to say, what to do
Afternoon hit
My eyes still betrayed everyone
and the clutched was still in my stomach
But it made a friend in my heart
as the abashed began to cover me
Still, no one noticed and to them
It seemed like a normal day.
Sighing as my pace was slower then usual
Has I did my daily routine of walking around the castle
Besides, I was told to do nothing else.
The moon will be a crescent tonight,
With no splash of yellow or sliver
that worried me more and more.
Such a silly thought, me worrying over the moon
But it was the moon that signaled
He would be here
But the moon betrayed me
Then again…everyone betrays me
One way or another
What to do, what to say
Moonlight hit the sky like a stone jumping on a pond
Just as I accepted, the moon betrayed me
He was not there once again.
My worry was soon gone, but only to be replaced by agitation
Silent tears came, but no water was hitting the ground, no salt on my cheeks
Crying is a weakness
Mother would say, quoting father.
Where is he?
Did he leave?
Does he not like me?
Was he only looking at me for sheer pleasure?
Did…”it” really get him?
I don’t know what to think or say.
All I think is old English words That make no sense
in my tragic poem.
What to say, what to do
I actually slept last night,
And I could of sworn
I heard something outside
moving in the bush’s
Climbing up my wall
kissing my forehead
But once I awoke, nothing was there
But I simple thorn picked from a rose.
I didn’t know how it got there
but a smile reached my lips
Somehow, I know it was he
he who stole my heart
He who kissed my forehead
and not my lips.
I will treasure this thorn.
Hid it in my hair
Never take it out
He is out there
He does love me
Ghost form or not
I know what to say, I know how to say it
I’m not afraid anymore
I’m not worried anymore
Wine isn’t my savor anymore
Frowning isn’t on me anymore
Sparkled eyes have no tears
I sleep peacefully
For I know
I am watched over
by a person
a spirit
A ghost
He came to me
no one can see him
Only I can
He protects me
He watch’s over me
He kiss’s my cheek, forehead, neck, lips
No pulse could keep up with him.
I know what to say, I know what to do
I fall asleep
Closing my eyes,
Happiness overpowers me.
He will come, the ghost will come
