Empty promises

Touch me.
touch me I say!
It is I
your love
come back for you.

No, I am not some deep dark phantom.
Nor am I a figment of your imagination.
I am real.

Here
touch me I say.
Feel me.
Know that I am real.

That our love
is real.
Know that I made no empty promises
to you.

That I came back
not even death
could separate us.

    A touchy ghost

    Sorry. It would be nice if death did not separate true loves but alas; It does happen. Maybe though, to be rejoined after both of the lovers cross over.
    Good luck in the contest.

    I found this rather scary; the wording and meter leant a sort of threatening note to the write. Don't know if it was intended, but it worked for me. Well done.

      thanks glad that you liked it too. I love the name. There was this movie that I just loved watching that had the name Legend as a title. Good movie. You ever seen it?

    Nuce take on this prompt. It has a deep feel to me, almost like someone is talking from the grave.
    All the best with this
