The Grey Between

BWaite

How is it you don’t know you’re a ghost?

Nothing but a silent, grey emptiness

Rattling my cupboards when I won’t feed you,

Slamming my doors when I won’t entertain you. 

Moving objects for attention. 

Never growing. Never creating. Never changing.

Only blowing empty air. 

Don’t you want to move on? 

To stop haunting me. 

To be more than a ghost.
