at a quiet beach --
a lonesome ghost rides away
on a bicycle

quiet smile --
a best friend
remembered

a dark night --
the sly cat
anticipates

unnoticed --
a single teardrop
in the rain

it's a different world
beneath the turbulent waves --
newly found peace

at a café --
hanging out with dear friends 
all of them ghosts

sitting by the lake
lonely with the calm waters
half-wishing for rain

eyes wide open --
darkness is visible
and nothing else

masked with a smile
an addiction to sadness --
the closet gothic

desperate for sleep --
counting sheep
one to infinity

quiet emotions
within the broken faces --
a storm of colors

the downpour
on a grey day
serving as my opiate
