The Ghost and The Huntress

Twas no accident
How they came to be
Two forgotten souls
Longing to be free


One from the present
Bounded by the chain of life
The other lost in his past
Binded by death’s eternal strife


By cosmos, they connected
Through the stony castle wall
Answering each other’s
Mournful call


Reaching through the bars
He touched her skin
Listening to all her fears
Absorbing every tear


Twas a love affair
Between the veils
Music only the two could hear
Playing on in a methodical waltz
As they danced an invisible dance


Gentle kisses
In the form of evening’s breeze
Graced her cheek
As he held her
Mesmorized within his deepend gaze


Never had he felt so alive
As the moment she crossed
Into his afterlife
Never had she felt so at peace
Laying in his transparent arms


Night turned to day
Weeks to months
Seasons came and went
And so did they


When she called
And received no answer
A day that would inevitably come
She knew her ghost
Her distant lover
Had found the strength to move on


And as she passes the castle
Where it all began
A rainbow shines constant
Reminding her, he is never far
If ever needed again
