Companion
I can hear her in the rain
A lullaby, a sweet refrain
A lover from the distant past
A lover never born to last
She is here to comfort me
Bring some solace, set me free
She believes that I was born to live
Bestow what I have to give
I accept my coming life
Be it dark, replete with strife
Her warm whisper in my ear
Tells me that I have naught to fear
Her presence will never fade
But protect me in the evening shade
Hold my hand all through the night
A companion in the morning light.

But protect me in the evening shade
Hold my hand all through the night

Thanks for the kind comment and RL entry, calamltygin. I'm glad you saw some beauty. Ghost tales need not be chilling.

Crowfly....
A "hauntingly" lovely piece! There.s just that certain something, about this scribe, that draws me in...invites me to read it multiple times! And....when i have finished each subsequent read, my mind's eye so clearly pictures that ethereal scene...the effervescence of a wavering form...the essence of her presence bringing comfort in the darkness...and fading as the rain dissipates with the morning light...
You have the ability--always-- to create such intriguing stories with your poetry...while making rhyming seem so effortless! Truly enjoyed!!!
Take care Mo Chara Daor! May You remain well!

Every time I re-read this it feels more like you're haunted, the human-pet of your muse, watching over you.
Also it reads out loud with a steady sonorous rhythm that reminds me of a dark version of The rain the park and other things
