A Ghost To You

Am I a ghost to you, unseen, unheard? Here in the flesh, hanging on every word. You look right through me, searching for a clue, For that perfect one, while I'm right in front of you. I linger in the silence of your heart's empty room, Am I a ghost to you, or will you see me soon? I just a ghost to you, fading into the backdrop, unseen, While you're on a quest, searching for a dream? You scan the horizon, for that so-called soulmate, Blind to my presence, as I silently wait. Are my words whispers, my touch but a breeze, Invisible to you, while you search the seas? I've been here, in the shadow of your light, Hoping, praying, you'd see my plight. But to you, I'm just a ghost, perhaps less, A figure in the fog, you fail to confess. Yet here I stand, flesh and blood, heart on sleeve, Wondering if you'll ever believe. I'm more than a shadow, more than a leave. Right here beside you, yet you glance away, Searching for a soulmate, while I stay. Am I invisible, or just too close to perceive? In your quest for love, why is it me you deceive? Hoping one day, your eyes will conceive, In this silent movie, I play the lead, yet you don't see, A narrative of us, lost in what could be. I shout in silence, my gestures grand and wide, But to your gaze, I'm just a tide. Passing by, unnoticed, a whisper in the wind, My love's an anthem, unplayed, pinned. Each day, a scene, where I'm just air, You searching for stars, unaware. I'm the constant, the true, the steadfast light, Yet in your galaxy, I'm out of sight. Still, I stand firm, hope turning the key, Wondering, dreaming, will you ever see me? I'm more than a shadow, more than a leave. Right here beside you, yet you glance away, Searching for a soulmate, while I stay. Am I invisible, or just too close to perceive? In your quest for love, why is it me you deceive? Hoping one day, your eyes will conceive, Here I remain, steadfast in my silent plea, A specter of love, begging to be free. Through seasons change and tides that shift, My heart's an anchor, yet you seem adrift. Invisible chains bind me to this spot, A guardian of feelings, for which you fought not. Yet, hope flickers, a flame in the dark, Believing one day, you'll notice the spark. Till then, I wander, a ghost in your midst, A bearer of love, too real to resist. In the story of us, I'm a chapter unwrit, Holding on to the day, when your heart will admit. So will you ever see, or will I forever be, A ghost in your world, a love plea? Waiting, wondering, till you finally perceive.
