He is there riding across the starry sky,
a tormented soul destined to wander.
An image caught upon the naked eye.
A dream relived memories to ponder.
Twilight shadow found in the mist,
waiting just beyond my limited vision.
Nocturnal creature hard to resist,
yet dark of night marks our division.
Haunted dreams of previous times
thoughts revealed, feelings provoked
of evil and the most insidious crimes
come fleetingly with memories evoked.
A separation from a world alternate
from this place where I now reside.
Steady shifting of this woman's fate
traveling from here to that other side.
He is lost, damned, forever confined
phantom in an obscure distant past.
Taken forever trapped in my mind
locked in this prison where he was cast.
