Challenge
Write a short love poem. The catch is that the first sentence must have seven words, and the following sentences should countdown until you have only one word for the last sentence. Basically 7 words, then 6, then 5, etc.
Love comes in numbers.
Mom
You're only a ghost to me now.
You were only ever a ghost,
rattling chains and slamming doors,
fleshless and without warmth.
I miss you.
I always
have.
