A ghost to me
Thou shalt be
One walking through the walls
I squint to see
The back of thee
Fading down the hall
The ground is mine
The Earth is thine
A house thou'rt surest free to haunt
Pass through my blinds
Into my mind
Do with me what thou want
Without a trace
Yet full of grace
Thou hate to see my loss
To see thy face
Thou took my place
Upon that sturdy cross
And so for thee
I'll try to be
A lantern for the lost
But first if ye
Would so kindly
Allow me to accost
I'd have no fear
If thou were near
Thou shalt be
One walking through the walls
I squint to see
The back of thee
Fading down the hall
The ground is mine
The Earth is thine
A house thou'rt surest free to haunt
Pass through my blinds
Into my mind
Do with me what thou want
Without a trace
Yet full of grace
Thou hate to see my loss
To see thy face
Thou took my place
Upon that sturdy cross
And so for thee
I'll try to be
A lantern for the lost
But first if ye
Would so kindly
Allow me to accost
I'd have no fear
If thou were near

Thanks a bunch for the link and for keeping up with my blog (probably better than I do). I'm not a very experienced poet, but I'm trying to practice more.
Also, sorry for never answering your question about Sufism. I was meaning to, but then I had to move back to school and completely forgot about it. I don't have much time these days, but I am going to try to start updating more frequently with some heavier posts. You're comments are always appreciated, friend.
Digging your friends blog, by the way!
