Love Poem: Ghost

Ghost

Hold me tighter
Hold me close
Tell me your secrets
Haunt me, your ghosts. 

Leave me lonely 
Leave me, scarred
Take my breath 
Take my heart. 

Speak only lies 
Speak only, hushed
Love me and leave me
Love me, then run. 

Break my heart 
Take it, too
Who needs a heart
No longer you. 

Hold me tighter
Hold me close
Love me, leave me
Please be my ghost.
