I donīt know why it happens
I donīt know why me,
but i can feel him fallowing
staring through, seeing what i see.
I can feel his hand on mine.
When night falls and I sleep,
I can see his face in my dreams.
I feel his pain, so sharp and deep.
I often awake in tears.
I miss him, and I donīt know
If itīs really him or my mind.
But they call to me,
to me they could never be kind.
No matter how hard i want them to be.
He haunts me in my nights and in my day,
I see him sitting on the couch,
and for some reason he will never stay.
I call to him aloud but nothing comes back.
Everyone calls me crazy and alone.
But i know heīs there and watching
I swear he even called me once on the phone.
I hear his voice and i see him there.
Even if you canīt or wonīt
I know heīs there.
And i know he misses me
Like i do him.

Don't ever consider yourself crazy for seeing the unseen. You are truly gifted. We are all connected by Spirit Lord knows we have a hard time understanding what love one another means. Peace in light and love. Best wishes in life and the contest. Be well.
