Ghost

I have a ghost in my life. He is like a puff of smoke, but always there when I need him. When I'm down or having a rough time, he's always there with a sympathetic ear or a soft shoulder. He always has the right words.  I don't know why he hangs around but he does. I never see him. I just know he's there.  He knows me much better than I know him. He has read my thoughts and has learned my many moods. I depend on him more than I should, but I feel secure knowing he's there. I hope I don't lose his trust.
