Challenge
WTIYOS
I saw wabisabi post a challenge like this on prose and I thought it was cool. In this version of the challenge you would take one of my poems and write it in your own style. You can do a total overhaul or just change a few things, whatever you want! My poetry isn't very good so this might be lame, but I hope you like this challenge.

I Fell in Love with a Ghost*
That night, when sunset cast deep shadows
there, under the lamplight I saw eyes
that met mine from a hazy shape, low.
So deep entwined did our souls become
our hearts beat in my ears and my spirit
soared, like a lost seagull missing the boat
sailing off toward the Northern pole pit.
I knew then, you had died someplace cold.
I will be forever old. Lost in time, deprived
no one to grow close to, no one to grow old
with children and house, only a moment
then you were gone.
*first line from Luthien's poem
