Haunts of an Old Friend

"Where are you?" asked the spirits, whipping in the wind.
"Where have you been?" They continued, "We thought you were our friend."
"Were did you go?" The spirits whispered, darting around my ear.
"Please don't run!" the spirits shouted, "You know you have nothing to fear."
"We've missed you!" cried the spirits, starting to fade away.
"If you ever come back, we hope this time you'll stay."
