Counterfeit Calls

A figure, for what do you call?

Faceless, veiled heavy in light

Yet chiseled a spirit so clear.

Veering in the distance

Still, phantom he glares.

A figure, for why do you call?

Speaking, absorbed in the night

Pondering, haunting the stars.

Darken by each hidden step,

Pensive he taunts.

A figure, for how do you call?

An apparition, a dream

Which ghost do you see?

Each visitant occupying the night,

Clearing sights to reflect.

A figure, for when do you call?

I regret to see, for within the mirror he shall be?
