I looked back
and in that split second,
once you,
now so gone,
there were ghosts.
A moment ago,
mistaken,
breathing you in,
disaster,
disaster.
Inspired,
always regretting
and never sleeping,
myself,
I did barricade.
To the walls,
to this room,
forever backwards,
marching.
Ghosts of,
inspired
and jealous,
secrets we never shared.
If just for a moment,
as forever is never,
and never is always,
I did not question.
