Sometimes you just cannot phantom how the universe works.

I was afraid
that if I begin,
even with a 'hi',
my tongue will roll itself
into so many versions of
'i love u' s,
It'd be hard to tell which one of us
is more embarrassed.

So all I do is let my phantom hand
touch your real skin.

Today, I watched the sunset
fade into twilight
even as the city lights blinked alive.
Did you feel it too, love?
The phantom grasp of my hand
in yours.

-

You are blinded by
false hopes and expectations
until you find yourself
walking down an empty street
painted white-silver by moonlight,
with buildings silhouetted against
the dark star-freckled sky.
You feel your heartbeat in your feet
while your whole body is numb.
A gush of cold wind reminds you;
You are all by yourself
as were you in the beginning.

-

I count the stars while you rest asleep.
The phantom wolves reach out to me.
Speaking of tales of love never meant to be.

-

Your phantom
lives in my room
garbed as the memories
that we gathered together
As it happens
I bear a phantom pain
when you go away
even when you're not here

I can feel his frigid existence
Each time the frozen breeze tickles my chest ...
sometimes l find his physique in the quiet murky night
Through the open window pane near my bedside ...
Sometimes l even observed his luminous eyes
Shimring as the stars in the enormous sky ...
I have experienced his inhuman presence
His gaze from the soiled picture frame ....
It was just the corpse that burnt to ashes
Nobody heard about spirits death ....

In a manner phantom
Is hallucination
So the movie was
Not so real and just an
Optimistic illusion
Name describes it well 😎🤟

-

To behold you is my dream,
To dwell in you is my phantom....
