Ghost Proof

They tried to bury me

Were still breathing

I learned how to sleep with the lights on

Doors locked mind racing

Every ghost got a face now

Every prayer misplaced in

Late nights stitching composure

With threads from my chest

If survival was fashion

I wore it the best

I kept receipts in my ribs

For every room I escaped

If the past comes knocking

I dont answer the gate

I dont flinch at the shadows

I named them already

They dont haunt what I own

They just prove Im steady

I dont bleach my history

To make it digest

I carry ghosts politely

They sit they dont test

Ghost proof

I dont scare easy

I survived nights

That tried to erase me

I dont rewrite pain

I let it speak truth

I dont hide from the past

Im ghost proof

I learned early how to keep calm

While the room panics

How to move soft

Through sharp mechanics

If I glow in the dark

Its experience talking

I dont chase closure

I walk with it walking

Quiet luxury stitched in my posture

No slogans

Names stay whispered

House built by the chosen

Designed by winners but never announced

You feel it when I pass

Thats enough to pronounce

I tried to outrun my reflection

Thought speed was the fix

Thought money made distance

From the things I aint fix

Now I sit with my ghosts

No drinks no disguise

If they come back around

I look them in the eyes

Do they ever leave

No

They just stop controlling shit

Ghost proof

Still standing

Still whole

Still breathing

Ghost proof
