I know you're there..Did you feel that?

Question

Some words for Elaine P.

Now You See Me …

I felt you there

Ghostly presence

Tapping at my soul

Prodding me with silken hands

Ever so carefully

So as not to fracture

Egg shell thin veil

Covering my self worth

Looking back to my future

You were gone yet…

Forever you remain

In what I may be

Answer 1

Good visual of fragility and (I hope) careful handling of such. ♥

Answer 2

I loved how you described her hands as "silken hands."

This a very gentle poem. I love it.

Answer 3

i was kinda torn between your discovery of self worth and the lingering memories of someone who touched your soul...both is a good thing, which is why it's harder to focus on one topic, short as your poem might be

Seems like she has peeled the skin off your potato.
