Was She In Love Poem by Barry Middleton

was she in love, I do not know
she lost her way so long ago
the night was cold in late September

she traveled far, where spirits stray
consumed by ghosts she could not slay
her soul was just a dying ember

still I recall a better day
when she would weep and she would pray
she is the one I will remember

was she in love, I'll never know
I call to her where wishes grow
in dreams that bring a sweet surrender
