Gosh, I love this. ‘Glorious in all her beauty and madness’. This is beautiful and going into my favorites. Somehow, the way you wrote this just grabs the attention and you really ponder more about this person. I’m very fond of this type of writing in general. This is very inspiring, thank you for sharing this wonderful piece.

A beautiful mix of beauty and madness, one tempering the other. Perhaps she is elusive as well, which defines her being like a ghost. Such a fascinating thought process!

I think that may be part of what I was going for....Thank you so much for your review!
When we find "Beautiful and haunting." We are in trouble my friend. You said everything necessary in the excellent poetry.

This is quite mysterious, and I find myself wondering if the madness is hers or mine.

A little brevity which builds up quite a picture. I enjoyed pondering on your words light and ashes.

That kind of says it all. I think I knew her. : )
Nicely done.

Few words describe her: "Beauty and madness" not necessarily opposites either.... one can be beautiful, yet riddled with pan and suffering...and can be haunting as well, completely misunderstood.
Nice write

I am extremely wary of describing anything as a 'Haiku' on this Site. Even so this is absolutely fantastic light. Shakespeare in 3 lines, and I immediately think of the British Actress Patricia Quinn in a version of 'the Scottish Play' that I saw at the Bristol Old Vic in the Late 70s. Spellbinding ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️
