Victorian Ballroom

Used to fear ghosts

Fear the dark,
Fear the unknown
But now I catch myself wanting to spot you,

Wanting to see you in the dark
I want you to know I won’t fear you

It can be 3am
Pitch black in my office
You can sit in my recliner
Our energies probably won’t allow us to speak

But you can stare at me
We can sit in silence
And stare at each other

Used to fear ghosts,

Fear the dark,
Fear the unknown
But now I catch myself
In between breaths
Whispering your name
Three times to make you appear

I won’t blink if you stand in front of me Eyes wide open so you won’t disappear 
Our energies probably won’t allow us to touch.

But we can mirror our hands
And ballroom dance
In the middle of my pitch-black living room

Victorian Ballroom

I’ll say I love you

You will smile at me

I’ll say I miss you

You will nod at me.

We agree.

I used to fear ghosts,
But I pray that God lets me dance with you.
