Immortal Ghost

a poem

unmatched in youthful ignorance

reflector of crudest ego

their touch inflamed by fire’s hands

spirit infused with lighting’s spark

such powers raw of mountain’s strength

a heart to flow in river’s grace

perfection

last of the like she’d ever feel



her failure — written

only choice in how to bear it

no other chance



alone

she'd heal in frightful little leaps

that love retained — undying



threat of hope;

immortal ghost
