Ghosts 2
I see ghosts of late
From scenes I’ve played
The haunting of familiar faces
In familiar placesI see ghosts of late
In the well of my emotional state
The pricking of past emotion
The lessons of past devotionI see ghosts of late
From loving relationships I’ve made
From mother and father
From sons and daughters
From wives and lovers
From sisters and brothers
From the friends who stayed
Among the ghosts I see of lateI see ghosts of late
Whispering of changes to date
The waves that rise and fall
The victories big and small
The turning of the earth
The renewal of life and death
All that shapes my fate
In the ghosts I see of lateI see ghosts of late
Part of the man I’ve made
They don’t go they wait
With me till that silent gate….
