***
It’s that time again for the April A to Z Blog Challenge. I’ve done this one for quite a few years, and it’s always fun.
This time I decided to go with the miscellaneous type posts, which some days will be whatever I want, and other days will be a resurrection of my older posts that pretty much no one or very few ever saw.
So, here we go with Letter G …

I AM THE GHOST BESIDE YOU
Why can’t you see me?
I never planned on being a Ghost…a Ghost of myself.
Flitting around you, I beg for attention…validation…
I am me…a Soul in transition…pain…
Why won’t you see me? I am here beside you.
You look right through me…like I’m not real.
It’s so hard…so hard…I want to be heard.
I need to know you still think of me…still love me.
I am transformed…not gone, not forgotten, not dismissed or diminished as
A strange sound, a confusing coincident of you know-not-what.
I don’t mean to scare you. Please feel no fear. I need your warmth…your love.
I ache to be near you.
Am I the cold chill you feel when I reach out to touch you?
Yes, it’s me.
Am I the wisp of mist you think you see, from the corner of your eye?
Yes, it’s me
Am I the moaning sound you think is the wind through the cracks?
Yes, it’s me.
I’m screaming out to you. I have been here all along.
I have not forgotten you. I give you signs…
Give me a sign that you still care…that you recognize that sudden small flash of memory.
Yes, it’s me, recognizing you in that moment.
I had to leave this life, this mortal realm.
It wasn’t my choice, you see. Please believe me…believe in me,
As I am still here with you…as I am.
I live in your heart, in your thoughts…I am still me, loving you, with all my Soul.
Am I the silence, when you sense that you’re being watched…yes, it’s me…I am near.
Yes, it’s me…still loving you with all my Soul…I am me…
I am the Ghost beside you…
