Ghost

Ghost

 

For a moment

I saw the glimmer

reflected in the mirror

but when I looked

back again

she was gone.

 

My heart filled

with terror

and passing lights

flashed

into my consciousness.

 

I tired to

shake the feeling

but the whiteness

of her form was

so clear.

 

For that brief

encounter

which forever

left me speechless.

 

Could my heart

recover

the will of

imaginative forces

bending my sanity.

I think the first stanza was the most intriguing. You did a good job of describing what is transpiring. Some of the other stanzas didn't quite feel in the same mode. Not sure if that was intentional or not. At any rate I think the last word in the first line of the last stanza should be "heart" unless I missed something...

Thank you and, yes it should somehow that one slipped by my notice
