"All I have seen teaches me to trust the Creator for all I have not seen."<br /> - Ralph Waldo Emerson


Ghosts

Pale shadows of who we were

What we believe

 


Haunting

Trying desperately to breathe

The air outside

 


Walking

Following the endless call

of sorrow in our hearts

 


Grasping

Desiring to warn those whose

Death is imminent

 


Laughing

Dying again, like we have before

Hollow shells
