Haunting You
I want to drift through your mind
like the ghost of some old memory
I want to linger in your thoughts
like an uninvited guest
I want to dwell in your subconscious
a background sound forgotten
I want to make you reconsider
all the sins you could commit
Now that would be worthy of love-- nicely written!
ReplyDeleteBeginning each verse with "I want..." really does create a haunting effect. Nice, Eric.

I just love this one--ghostly and romantic all at once! Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteWow...are you in love?
ReplyDeleteYour poems are superb...
Simple and overt yet perfectly pure in intent - great!
ReplyDeletelove this. do you want to encourage or discourage the committing of the sins? i'm hopeful for the former. ;)
ReplyDeleteI purposely left that ambiguous, so readers would decide for themselves. (Consciously or otherwise)
