Love's Ghost
How do you touch the
Intangibility of an unfeigned love –
When it is so attached
To physicality's ghost?
And when does that love
Learn not to breathe –
The air of utter completeness
Through its empty grasp?
Just when does the heart
Learn of acceptance –
Of the impossibility of
Such a perfect rapture?
How do you release a
Spirit that refuses to let go –
That which the mind
Has joined its force?
And does the fire of
Such a love ever extinguish –
Or does it continue its dream
For a tangible ghost?
