Your ghost is at my fingertips.
Literature
Just Because
Because I may never speak the truth,
Listen;
Listen with your heart;
Rely on faith for guidance.
Because the present is all that matters,
Breathe;
But breathe freely;
Let life in without prejudice.
Because life is made of choices,
Dare;
Dare to find strength;
To forgive and speak gently.
Because to me you are perfect,
Change;
But change softly;
Do it with purpose and grace.
And because my heart will love you always,
Know;
Know that Ill stand waiting;
Swear to catch me, and Ill fall.

could have been pulled taut.

wafts through the window every night
how can you expect me to sleep
when there is that exotic tang
right in front of
my nose
just far enough where you pull me by a string
and I can step into a world where
everything is not the same.
Second person stories are not the same
you've got to be there
to feel there
to live there
to know there
you've got to smell t

I absolutely love this take on a six-word story - within such short limits, you've created movement, atmosphere, and meaning.
