Her as a ghost ship ferry
in your fever dream,
scarcely rippling the water,
cradling you out to sea.
Her as a forgotten word
you utter upon waking,
quivering and stark,
stitched into the ether.
Her as fog in moonlight,
drifting through the window,
filling the empty spaces,
spiking your drink.
Her as a note without a song,
speaking through the birds,
falling through the tree limbs,
seeping into your symphony.
