Ghost Mirror
My ghost mirror tells me all I need to know
She whispers sweet truths
wherever I go
I hear the sound of rivers underground
Please do visit my darkness so unfound
Dear muse please stay
Please never go away
When I sense a crack in my roof
your words arrive as absinthe rains
dancing through my empty pages
