Karnail Singh Heirwale - A Ghostly Figure

A Ghostlly Figure

I do not believe in ghosts
A ghostly figure is after me
Like a shadow
Behind me in the morning
Before me in the evening.
Wherever I go
It goes.
Romances like it.
Necromancers fail
To hail it.
It upsets me any moment
To set up itself.
The plaza is mine
The exchange is mine
The gown is mine.
The crown is mine.
But I am not mine.
