Your ghost drifts through me
like a silent moment in time.
I am stunned with the memories,
pale in the moonlight of my mind,
as I try to bring forth the thoughts
your prolonged abscense have erased.
the tendrils of glimpses like smoke from an unknown fire
leave me breathless
pain lodged in my gut
and tears rolling down the sunken hollows of my cheeks
