invisible

'invisible'

ghost haunting the halls

so desperate are you

to communicate with the living

as they live lives

pushing you deeper 

into the corners you inhabit.

across rooms you flit

dismissed as mere shadow

while all your cried anguish

passed off as howling on the wind.

that great light of salvation 

shines just beyond your flailing hands

yet you seek not rest

only a greater want to tear open

eyes sewn shut to your existence.
