hello ! just want to say that i really loved your response to somebody asking you about your thoughts on ghosts. i see too many seeing them only as 'evil' or 'scary' all the time and thinking of them as echoes and shells of somebody who once was is so beautiful. thank you for your words and for believing. - a ghostkin who feels seen
The two-faced god thanks you for your kind words. I've been ruminating over your message and decided I'm going to write you a little poem -
ECHOES
If I am not there, why search for me?
Why guide a single white candle
through the darkness
and whisper for me
and yet spook at gossamer curtains in the night?
Why say my name three times in the mirror,
and yet frighten
when the planchette slides about the spirit board?
I am merely an echo
of the sweet dreams and nightmares
that once ruled this place.
You see me, yet see right through me.
I'm still trying to convince myself that it's alright,
it's okay -
