Places I left

The haunted man
sleeps with ghosts 
I cannot see
No soothing in my words 
My touch does not wake him
I hide as he asks me to leave
I pretend I'm sleeping
Not to flinch in despair
Of my own dreams ending
I beg him to stay
without words
But there is no room in this house
For my little bones
 Without you 
i vanish
my affair fleeting as the script
of your love writes a different story
to my name
