She came
last night
The color of
chalk
Her face
Her body
Her long
flowing gown
A veil
covering her face
I recognized
her
Smiled
Glad to see her
Jumping in my sleep
Not scared
Just startled
She misunderstood
Thinking I
was scared
Left as
quick as a heartbeat
Like a
hummingbird
Come back I
cried
She didn’t
Gone
Waking up
Not knowing
if it was real
Or a dream
