Ghosts can only hurt you if you let them

I can see you cowering in the recesses of your loneliness.

Come on out,

I'm not the one who will hurt you.

I am but a ghost,

A ghost of the memory you refuse to let slip from your knotted fists.

I do not know how long I've waited.

Forever perhaps?

Maybe so, as it feels that way.

Come home my friend.

We can be together once more.

The topic is certainly different and attracted my attention.
I really liked the last line. Maybe I'm wrong but I think its not only applicable to ghosts.
I liked your feelings towards the person you are talking to.
Great job :) Thank you for such a lovely RR.

I wonder that ghosts do not hurt a person. Of course that is not the whole truth...
