Ghostly



pale like a ghost 
she screamed so loudly until
white sheet fell away


~0~0~

ghostly encounters
real or imagined scenes
gives me frightful dreams


~0~0


unsociable, shy  
she was a ghost of herself
living in the past

    The last one seems to describe Miss Havisham in Dickens' "Great Expectations."
