A Haunting Apparition
A visage of you
would stop the sky
whilst universe pauses
its honor no lie
Making your way
through perilous life
ripple’s a harmony
poets recite
Mouth of chastity
dabbed with blood
in kisses from you
instant love
fibrils of life
flowing behind
draw from around
space and time
Gathering your cloak
drew deep sighs
all hearts in range
did capsize
Opening your eyes
lighting the stars
touch from your hand
consumes and disarms
Now that you’ve passed
we shudder in breath
at wondering mystery
of life after death
