Chilling to the bone Will, I really liked this poem. The use of language is superb as always, but it is very haunting and penetrates the sense of fear at its simplest form. Great write, as usual!

You: you are my ghost, My violet phantom, My rumor, my regret. Gee, I wonder if we ever loved the same woman? Your last few lines reminded me of a ghost from my past.... no, I guess a different memory.. my ghost liked to dress in purple. This poem really got to me. Zen

Why haven't I read this before? It is heart-acheingly, flowingly, elusively gorgeous; and you know I know. Fine work indeed Will. t x

'You must not ask me any more I must not hear you any more Unless you ask me to'. The whole is a heartbreaker of epic proportions Will, but these three lines say oh so much. It is a terrible hook to be on, but lost love that was worthwhile, hangs us straight on to it - and keeps us there for quite a while in some cases.More superb poetry. jim
