I've found one ghost to talk to me,
she's small like a child and she smiles,
she looks at me like I'm a mouse in an
experiment, ironically I've nicknamed
her Algernon,
Her eyes are not hazy like the others,
she looks directly at me when I talk,
she doesn't understand my words but
her mouth moves as if to imitate me,
I ask her so many questions,
it feels good to talk to someone again,
For just a moment we did communicate,
she stumbled in the snow and I caught
her hand to steady her, she smiled up
at me as if I was a champion, and for
just one moment we exchange thoughts,
I am so thankful for this girl,
she makes me realize
that I am still alive after all.
