They swarm around me unseen
Some to protect
Some to just watch
Some to never let me forget
The ghosts of my past
Are always with me
Those who have died
Those whose memory is strong
And those who still torture my soul
I have never seen them
But I can feel they are there
And will always be a part of me
They helped me become
Who I am today
And I welcome them
And their energies
Always beside me
Haunting echoes of my past

Do you have ghosts you are thankful for? We always carry those with us who have touched our lives for good or bad. Don’t let them scare you.
The forbidden forest beckons
