haunting isn’t always paranormal

i fast forward in time until i can feel your aura

for all time in between the merging of our love is just a blurry movie

i see everything in you

a sleepy morning, wiping away the prior night from my eyes and gazing upon your resting body and contended expression

i hear everything in you

a bass-heavy speaker echoing those songs that remind me of how you make me feel when you’re with me

i feel everything in you

a soft work shirt covering your calm heartbeat that i am graced with feeling on my cheek

i tell myself, “i know it’s hard, but you can do this, you can trust”

“you have the whole future in front of you”

“in the form of a fantastic, loving, wonderful, and beautiful gift”

i can’t believe i was given such a chance

to finally feel at home and in my element

im comfortable

and i have to let myself enjoy it

‘cause i have been burned, and scarred, and stabbed

and those scars don’t just heal up like a paper cut

they haunt me

but you fight the ghosts away

and im thankful for that
