Ghosts by Harmony Woods

We sit in silence,
watch the wind blow,
listen to our fellow strangers
talk about the lives they’ve lived and
whether they were all worth living

Still, I stare
at the people shivering there
in their summer clothes
Where they go when this is over,
no one knows

Death is not a stranger
every life will have an end
One day you will die
and only ghosts will be your friend

Cars are passing, people are rushing on by
They’ve got places to go and things to do tonight
They’re too busy to sit around and think about life
If they’re not worrying, why am I?

Death is not a stranger
every life will have an end
One day you will die
and only ghosts will be your friend

(We sit in silence,
watch the wind blow,
listen to our fellow strangers
talk about the lives they’ve lived and
whether they were all worth living)
