Through the mist
I’m living with a ghost.
I gave up my life and relocated to be near my husband, only to find, I'd never felt more alone.
His ring was on my finger, but his mistress was his job. I was left alone and ignored... adrift in a sea of loneliness and confusion.
Craving a connection and desperate for affection my mind conjures up a handsome stranger. He haunts my sleep, and before long, my waking mind.
When strange occurrences start happening around me, I should be terrified. And I am. Until the truth becomes clear-- my dreams have manifest.
I'm living with a ghost.
Fear fades to intrigue and as the days pass, I fall deeper under his spell. Of a man long dead, who makes me feel alive and desired.
A man who isn't my husband.
Do I embrace this new, inexplicable love? Or fight my way through the fog, to the marriage I once treasured?
