Lavender Ghost

to go into that light
oh that holy light;
he walks among
headstones at night,
oh those starry nights;
the ghost of her reaches his aura
oh his loving aura,
the scent is familiar
it is so familiar —

she would bathe and lather
in the aroma of jasmine
and hyacinth water;
her favorite color was lavender,
she rests with lavender roses
that grow beside her;

they sprawl and cover her,
roses gently cover her —
the one who eternally loves her
longingly weeps for her,
he kneels and longingly weeps for her;
he can hear her loving whispers
with so much love she whispers;
she says, I am yours forever,

with everything within her
she says, I am yours forever;
he kisses her headstone
and lies upon the flowers;
tearfully he lies upon the lavender flowers —
he truly loves her,
with everything within him
he truly loves her
