Ghost Ships

Ghost Ships


Ghost ships on the horizon 
Fading in and out
Shadows of a being
Shrouded in the mist

Ghost ships are far away
But not out of sight 
They ride through
A murky ocean

Ghost ships cut through
Calm tides 
Get absorbed 
In a foggy mist

Ghost ships thrive on memories 
They manifest your dreams 
But turn into nightmares
As easy as you breath

Ghost ships never leave you
Although you wish they would
Always there in the shadow 
Holding on to your past 

Ghost ships are hiding
Someone or somebody 
They appear and disappear 
become a fleeting vision 

Of all you left behind

Beata Agustin Date: 8/18/2022 5:18:00 AM Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." The Lord's blessings be with you.
