In twilight’s realm, where shadows play
A ghostly figure fades away
A specter from a distant past
In whispers, memories steadfast.
A wisp of life, once bound to earth
Now wanders, seeking second birth
In spectral form, it haunts the night
A spirit caught between the light
With eyes that hold eternal pain
A ghost relives its earthly chain
A tale of love, or vengeance sworn
In death, its purpose still reborn
It drifts through time, a silent wraith
Invisible to life’s bright faith
A reminder of what once was real
A haunting presence, time can’t heal
Though death has claimed its mortal frame
The ghost endures, a lingering flame
In the cosmic dance of fate’s grand host
A spectral soul, a timeless ghost.

Love this, especially the lines …
A reminder of what once was real
A haunting presence, time can’t heal
