Haunted

by Liana Minassian

Velvet ghost,

your sheet a whisper.

Soft haunts

tingle tiny hairs.

Shoulders shudder

with a breath of wind.

Cinnamon and sweat’s

slow-motion dance

hangs in time —

caught in dusty sunbeams.

I lay in their

golden innocence,

enchanted by a past life’s

bittersweet apparition

the fabric of

a broken heart’s slow burn.
