Image for the poem Ghosting

Ghosting

She retreats with measured step
My shadow following in her wake
Her image wavers, growing faint
Lingering long enough to bid farewell

She smiles as she turns away
But the luster in her eyes is lost
Efforts made to coax her to return
Are all in vain, and slowly spurned

She stays on the edges of this retreat
One glimpse of our former life
One last smile before the dawn
A brush of her lips, and then she's gone.
