She Walks In Beauty

She walks in beauty,
like the long, dark night.
Alone but for the shadows,
bathed in gilded, silver armor.
Heard by no one.
Seen, only when the clouds disperse.
For four score and one hundred years,
one hundred and four thousand more,
tracing these same steps.
Once and again,
each step, a mirror of the last.
A ghost, a glance, a myth.
She cannot leave this here and now,
bound forever to the tide.
Oath-sworn to a justice she sought,
but never seemed to find.
Sword in hand, seeking the truth,
Forever, until the end of all.
She walks in beauty, like the night.
Alone but for the shadows,
Seen by only those who have been wronged,
understood by none.
Ushered by the moon,
She is the sound the wind makes when it cries.

I would not change a thing. I would also venture a guess that more understand you than you give yourself credit for.
Anyway...
Excellent writing.
Take care. Thank you for sharing your feelings and your gift with us.
