What if we had a house of ghosts,
hands on doorframes
in the corners of our eyes,
what if we were haunted
by love that was loved within
those walls?  
Would you see them, would you
speak as though they wore
flesh, would you invite them
in?  Here a man who watched
his lover pass, here the
lover, thinner in light for the time
she waited;  
would the creaking floorboards
startle, or would they soothe,
would they sing
we too were here once, we too
loved as you love?  

Stay, I would say, we will stay
until we haunt the spaces we called
home.  
Put your hand through me,
where my heart once beat,
stand beside the window
and vanish
as the sun makes us
invisible.
