Your words

Your words enter my soul
as if they were slippers walking
silently the night
looking for the ghost
that left them behind.

Your words kill the pain in me
soothing it with soft cotton
but outside it is cold
I am broken sitting in despair
listening to the air
hearing your silent voice

I long for warmer times
when your words and mine
were holding hands
in a love song
that was never mine.


I am not happy with the last two lines. Any comments will be appreciated.

Imagery is good. Maybe you could just think of changing the last line.... 'that was sheer melody' or 'that was so right' (just a suggestion)
