She Runs in Silver


She runs in silver like an arctic fox

(No, that’s not right)

She walks inside colors

Rains out games and lovers

(Still not quite it either)

She is not she or they or he or it

She is a nebula

(No, she isn’t)

She stands on my window

Invisible, a sylph, not a siren

Her secret, silent and just out of reach
