Ghost of Me

Ghost of Me

A Poem by Barbara Borel

The ghost of me. What once was, is still here. Drifting, haunting, loving from afar.

Braincells wasted, physically depleted, body trembling. How did death come so suddenly?

Just as a child is born, the old woman draws in her last breath. I hope I get that chance. To think to laugh to love to breathe.
