You stay with me still, my penance ghost.
You apparition of my soul.
Never to leave me, forever to stay.
Whenever my mind wanders,
Thoughts of you it does play.
A fading whisper lost in the distance.
Glistening ember, dimmed by the fog.
The lost wanderer that unknowingly travels true.
A shadow of the dawn, rising above the horizon.
And I, I the follower, retracing footprints
long since covered.
