My Wayward Heart
The wind blows my way,
Sending chills down my body,
A soft whisper spoken in my ear,
I turn to the voice and see no one,
I wrap my arms around me tighter,
Try to think of happy memories,
To calm my wayward heart,
I close my eyes,
I hear soft footsteps,
I turn towards the footsteps,
It's coming closer,
Than I see a ghost of my love,
My love's brutal death flashes in my mind
Tears in my eyes,
I try to wipe them but they keep pouring out,
The closer he comes the more sobs break out,
I keep shaking in horror,
Once he is in front of me he wraps his arms around me,
Kisses me gently on my forehead,
In shock I raise my hand to where he kissed me,
I see a pale, ghostly hand rise as my hand,
I realize then I have joined him in his journey to the other world.
