Notes About The Poem

unrhymed quatrains 

Ghostly Mirage

All one will ever need is you everlasting loyalty 
where a thousand teardrops are sourced 
glistening gems from the fountain they shall fall 
with the grace adorned beauty held within

That of a single tune striking cords deeply
Kissed by the oceans is the salt contained 
In wild seas it's there phantoms of the past nightshades 
driven by ghosts is the tides turning current

Crashing waves hurled by the breath exhaled 
tempest of the storm you carry away footprints 
where all that remains is the shell of your being 
bleached through the sands of time
