Ghosts dance upon the ocean of stars, their luminous melodies hidden
within the cadence of the universe's sigh. Balloons rise—
echoes of laughter once lilting, now woven into forgotten waves.
Mirrored in the cavern of time, reflections of what
might never have been. One more breath, one more
whisper, lost to a celestial wind's symphony.
Do the echoes remember? Or do they, too, succumb to
the revenant's embrace; a quiet pull into the waiting void,
leaving only a memory of traversable dreams?
