Hotel Ghosts

The semi darkness do I creep

Ghosts in tow begging for my sleep

Lights too bright I harken to hall as a savior to my senses

This room of grandeur in pamphlet alone

Do its walls sit so close to my soul that I beg for release

The need for escape does it writhe like worms through my mind

Shouts in the distance offer misery and broken dreams

While sex plays down the hall through surround sound

My shadows grow closer

My ghost she begs for sleep

My muse does she weep

My soul does it scream

What does this life truly mean?

Trains cry in the night

My murderer

My savior

Lights grow dim

Soft tapping at my door

My ghost,

let her in…
