16. GHOSTS

PAYING NO ATTENTION

IN THE CORNER OF MY EYE

THE SHADOW OF A FIGURE

SLOWLY PASSING BY

TURNING ROUND TO TAKE A LOOK

THERE’S NO ONE STANDING BY

IT’S JUST THE SHADOW OF A GHOST

WHICH SEEMS TO CATCH MY EYE.

I HEAR THE SOUND OF LAUGHTER

RINGING IN MY EAR

A SOUND SO REAL I TURN TO LOOK

THERE’S NO ONE STANDING NEAR

AND YET IT SOUNDED VERY REAL

THE LAUGHTER I COULD HEAR

THE GHOST OF SOMEONE FROM MY PAST

SOUNDING LOUD AND CLEAR.
