Update

Hello everybody. I know these types of posts are boring, but please bear with me, and I'll try to keep it short. 

Basically, I have no idea what I'm doing here. I've tried typical-blog-post kinds of articles and things, but I just don't have enough to say or enough experience. 

What I really love is writing, and that's what I want to do. Sure, here and there I may post something about music or about something that I feel is important, but I just don't have enough to keep this thing running off of posts like that. 

My point is, I am not giving up on this blog. I've held out on posting poems and original stuff because it seems like something that will attract less people. But you know what? That's all I have, and it was my main reason for starting this whole thing. 

However, I do understand that I'm still writing for an audience. If anybody, anybody (yes, even you!), has any ideas or suggestions, please comment them down below. Even if you're reading this months or years after I've posted this, still leave suggestions if you have them. As I said, I have no idea what I'm doing here. I need your help.

Thank you so much to anyone who has stuck around thus far, and thank you to anyone joining me on this journey.

Your Ghost

It is not in my nature
to be attached
My cold concrete castle chambers and halls feel
as if they were constructed to be vacant
But they adapted after you moved in

And now the vines around my window sill
that once bloomed in your sun
are wilted in the winter I created
The twisting shadows still trace my walls
even though the green cords have died and fallen


You have made your mark
