White Lady

She floats above the village streets at night
In search of some forgotten tale of old
Her ghostly form is beautiful and white
Her ghostly tale is one that's often told

Her life became the sorrow of remorse
Her death became the sorrow all can feel
A ghostly essence runs its ghostly course
A hidden tale the teller can reveal

The teller of her tale this time is me
I saw her in the village where I live
She seemed to know the tale she sought to be
In me she found a teller she could give

Her tale of unrequited love and more
Of life and death, a dark unopened door.
