My demons visited
Again last night
To ask me
as they often do
if I am worthy of love.
They know exactly
where to prod and poke
To reignite
that gnawing ache
And then I waken
Crying,
To see the grey dawn breaking.
Love is the grey ghost
That dances in my garden
I know you're here
Because I feel your footsteps
Falling,
Dancing in my heart,
And the demons ache
Becomes the ghost again.
I wonder if the Ravens
Know this pain
As they dance in pairs
In tumbling spirals
calling.
