Ghost of You
when sadness knocks
on my door at night
and memories blanket
me with chill
when the ghost of you
creep like a phantom
would you know
how i feel?
when laughters are
fossilized in photographs
and warm touches
had already waned
do you sleep soundly
on a moonlit night
or think of how we
used to be?

fossilized in photographs”. Another amazing piece, Maria!

Both the words and the photo create a haunting image Maria. There are many ghosts we have to deal with not just the ones from the other side.
