Pale hazel haunting

Shadow behind my eyes

Always there, lurking

A simple compromise

Soft whispers echo

Distracting me too

Showing me the window

Back to you

Should I travel

Ghosts I follow

Story yet to unravel

Empty and hollow

Now you chase me

Silently amongst stones

It’s you I can’t see

Hiding behind their bones

Should I choose this

Or let you go?

Stay for a last kiss….

Or free the crow?
