gHoSt LiPs.
touch here and touch there.
i’m cold, her presence is cold on my skin.
breathe, breathe, breathe.
i weep late at night at my hopes and dreams.
she shadows me, loves me from afar.

gHoSt LiPs
soft, cold to the touch.
a kiss, gentle, and sweet,
the touch gentle to the smooth skin
of my forehead.
home, she is home.

gHoSt LiPs
safety and promise circle me.
she circles me on dark nights.
my love, my life, a person i wish i knew.
this lady, a blank face but soft heart.
i wish i knew i wish i knew.

gHoSt LiPs
chaste and sad.
i am sad. she is sad. we are sad.
misfortunes destined to meet.
cliche and depressing.
a love to not be had.

her ghost lips.
her ghost lips.
her ghost lips.
one day her love will reach me.
