I have fallen in love with a ghost
Not just any ghost
You see
But the most beautiful ghost
She has my heart and I have hers
And when the night comes
I see her
Through my words
I am in love with a ghost
Who knows
What I think
Of her porcelain skin
And her gentle eyes
That watch me all the time
I have fallen in love with a ghost
Whose transparent heart
Sees no end to her love
And devotion
I am haunted by a ghost
Not just any ghost
You see
But the sweetest ghost
I light candles for her
And she whispers to me

Maybe she'll turn out to be a succubus! (Oh no!)
Lovely One Shot, Jean-Michel!
Ah, sweet haunting love. Effective work.
Thanks again for the comments everyone! When I wrote this poem I was thinking of poetry as the ghost hence the last 2 lines.
Apparitional beauty... moments of pleasure in time not lost.
