Ghost Girl
A different course I would take
Had I been much earlier warned
That closeness just for closeness sake
Would make our love turn so forlorn
Foolish did I leap with both feet
Never trying to hold love back
Doing less reeks of incomplete
Half-hearted the efforts I lack
Unaware of the fears you hold
I chose the best of me to give
Sorry now in my being bold
Penetrating the life you live
I did not account for your fears
The reasons you push me away
The absence not marked by my tears
Just sadness your choice not to stay
This to us is all shiny new
And your life so mad hectic now
You struggle hard to see it through
Easier without me somehow
I tried to be patient and wait
Till unrequited love be post
But it appears to be my fate
That you vanish like haunting ghost
So, I am now left all alone
Pondering my warranted fear
If a change in your heart be shown
Would I let you again come near
Or has this game been well played out
Leaving me in a condition
You leave me with some aching doubt
And I fear your apparition
Shimmering and vapored woman
Spook someone else’s hallowed night
I recognize boding omen
Ghosts shan’t abide in loving light
So, vanish like a childhood fear
Like a strange sound in the closet
No longer are you allowed here
No belief in ghosts I posit
commonsensiblyspeaking 
nicely done; rhyming closet and posit – impressive!
I will readily admit that was a struggle! Thanks Jim!
do you have a rhyming dictionary?
Not yet, but there are good resources online too!
I remember watching an interview with Bruce Springsteen where he said he just burned through a rhyming dictionary when he was writing Blinded by The Light. If you ever read the lyrics, you can see what he meant.
I believe that Jim. Where did you think ‘bunce’ came from…lol!
ah, yes, good old bunce; the word I had to look up!
Maybe the reason is very genuine and she us helpless.
That’s a possibility I guess. But the result is the same. Thanks for commenting Meena!
