Velvet Cell

And you oozed
my heart unattanded
caught

Creeping inside
when I thought I had been shut
tight

Happy to be
open again and
warm

I let my defenses
down. And Now for one minute
I want you out

I feel you inside
An ornamental trap or
Home?

perhaps that's reality
My velvet cell--the answer
Both

Do I have the key to
your velvet cell? so I
can haunt

A banging in the attic
constant and scary but oddly
welcome

I've dreamed of ghosts
and have mine. Are you
haunted?
