Apparition

Surprising contact with the invisible world :)

Late walking in the silent darkness
Feeling chills on my body
Is there someone behind me?

A swift caress on my hair
Should I turn around?
My steps trembling
The air is alive, breathing, whispering...

Surrounding me from everywhere
Fear growing in my heart
Pounding, shouting:

RUN!!
Soft sough holding me back...
I can't run!
I stop walking
Gentle breath enfolding me
Frosty, tender, slipping under my clothes
My skin seems cast in stone
Scorched and icy,
Quivering and waiting...

I catch a glimpse of two sparkling eyes
So close to my frightened cheek

A spectre...

Blue sigh in my ears
A lingering scent of sweet moss
Misty savor on my shivering lips...

I've been kissed by an apparition!
