me and my ghost

life is good

i lay in my bed I'm staying at Amy's hows tonight and i felt impressed to talk to my ghosts.  i got my own room so it was safe to talk to them without looking weird.
"hello"? i ask into the darkness.
"Lilly are you OK"
"Beth is that you"
"ya it's me how are you doing"
"fine" i say i wait before asking "can i talk to him..my dad"
"people can only talk to spirits if there are near their death place" Beth says
"oh" i say looking down at my sheets
"i can see your disappointed"
"i am used to be afraid of him now i wish i could talk to him for just tens seconds tell him he wasn't the monster i thought he was"
"maybe you should try talking to him when you go home"
"ya i will" i suddenly perk up excited to go home tomorrow
"get some rest" Beth says i do as she says and go to bed.

        I wake up to Amy jumping on my bed,
"mom made chocolate chip pancakes"! Amy shouts excitedly as she hops down. "come on before they cool down" i get up and follow her to the kitchen.
"life is good" i say taking a bite of my pancake.

        I walk down my drive way and go inside.  I look around to make sure no one was listening.
"dad?" i ask.....nothing"dad" i ask again
"lilly"? i hear my dad say
"dad!" i say
"i'm sorry i wasn't a good father"
"i shake my head "no it was good life was good....life was good" a single tears falls from my cheek and whisper "life is good"
