A Virtual Ghost

Without a trace

It's that sense of you,
Your essence.
It wraps me and strokes my inner being.
Takes apart who I am,
Reinvents me.

It's that picture of you,
It conjures dreams.
Illusions that drown me in touch.
And sensations,
Warm the cold places of my soul.

It's your words that caress me.
Send my imagination in rants.
Swirls me in dreams of times to come
And alludes to those feelings
Ones that could exists, if only...

Then disappears without a whisper,
And vanishes like a breath.
A scent imagined,
That presence known.
Without a hope,
Restricted.
A virtual ghost.

The beginning of this poem is like being swirled warm syrup, then the contrast of the last stanza hits hard, and nicely done.

Sincerely

I've felt like a ghost many times.
When You talk but no one listens.
when you point but no one looks.
when you scream but they keep on walking.
great poem. It got me thinking.
