The Invisible Man

I pass, like the
Autumn breeze rustling the leaves
Lips brush you your cheek, like
the kiss of the Spring Sun

Unseen
Faint, a moonlit shadow.
Unknown
Dark, an ashened abyss.

Your heartbeat echoes
in the dark of mine
My touch whispers
snaking around your skin

A ghost in your thought
My eyes a glimpse in yours

Lips,
Breath shared
A heart seen...

Dark

A much better write, than the first I read the other day.
Spirit or ghostly like, to touch yet not be there, in some strange way, as if a loss of someone, where the memory lets you play as you would like.
Good for the imagination,
Yours Ian.T

Not a bad write

I like the mystery, the ability to let the reader form their own visuals and interpretation. Very nice.
