Night visitor

Ghost moth what message do you bring

carried from night on haunted white wing?

Notice from a spirit lost, searching for a place to rest

Past love long departed forgotten but still possessed

A sheet of paper falling out of night shade trees

circling, dropping, lolling on gypsy breeze

Born on breath of darkness, carried by mystery's wind

Night's shadow a black grave for past days sinned

Cracked casket of day emits a flash of white

A phantom flies as a spectre in darkest midnight

Mysterious, love it. It seems like a soul is asking for help, or I don't get it well.

Thank you so much for the read and comment that would be the most common way to see it.

You are so deft at writing poems that have a mysterious aura to them.
And I love that genre.

Thank you so much Jacob I've been accused by those close to me of being mysterious and hard to read, I guess it just comes natural. Too bad it doesn't work at poker
