a ghost lurks


Though a person may leave your life... I have found that their ghost can be difficult to shake. The ghost that reminds you to be more cautious as you enter a new situation-never knowing what is waiting behind the next turn. The next move... unknown. The ghost that makes you hesitate before entering a dark room... or make you question who is staring back at you as you look into the mirror.

Im finding that at a sign of hope-my ghost is screaming at me- reminding me of what people are capable of... especially when you let your guard down. The unexpecting fool. 

But the real question... can a ghost of your past help you...? Scare you straight down the right path?  Helping your realize that there are people that you should avoid- situations that scream- get out... leave! Remember me?!  Im hoping that the ghost following me will help me remember... proceed with caution.

It's a funny thing. I don't believe in ghosts.
