Poem By Else Cederborg: "Hauntings"


Hauntings


Gone, they said, gone forever

No coming back, they said

No-no-no never again

that is, except as a ghost


Do I want that?

Want to see your dear face an unmoveable mask?

To see your handsome frame grown threadbare?


But what if your eyes are still yours?

Lovely and loving?

Still portals to a soul worth loving?


Then I say: Haunt me

yes, haunt me by day or by night

let the seal between us be your glance

your eyes

the portal to Eternity
