Uriah Hamilton - Dissolving Into Ghost

At dinnertime,
I softly gaze out the window
Into the evening turning black.

I eat my food slowly
And never turn backwards
To let my eyes
Roam into the lonely bedroom.

I’ve spent years alone
Dissolving into ghost;
I don’t want to see a book
Resting at the head of the bed
Where once a woman slept.

Uriah Hamilton
