Ghost Writer

Write! He encourages

Write of my love for you

Of early morning coffee shops

Of daydreams built for two

Write! He requests of me

Of misty evening trails

Write of a love so pure and strong

We though it'd never fail

Write! He begs insistently

Our twilight turns to dusk!

Write to keep the night at bay

Write, save us, you must!

Write! His requirement

Write through the misty haze

Write though you're battle-worn and weary

Write past the bitter days

Write! He commands of me

Write though your hand is aching

Write of the pain that spills from you

Write as your heart is breaking

Write! Prove your worth, he yells

Write through the tears that fall

Write haikus, prose, and limericks

Write, poet, write them all

Write! The words he rips from me

Write so the world can see!

Write of everything you've ever lost

Write one last ode to me!

Write, he whispers quietly

Write 'til the ink runs dry

Write, feel your muscles seize

Write until you die
