Waiting on a Ghost

Waiting on a Ghost

A Poem by Amila Jay
"

I never knew you but I still loved you

"
At five or six I will wait by thee

Starring into the water in front of me

Painting a portrayal of you in my heart

As a silent June wind blows in my face

They try to tell me that you don’t exist

That you are dead and gone; you are history

But waiting for you is the only thing that cures me

For one thing is true

I had never known you but I still love you
