Untitled #2

Shadows lurking everywhere Wondering why they can’t see their eyes Why they can’t see, the things to make them see Candles burning in the darkest room Flame is saying that he dreamt of a day A day, that he would dream they’d put him out Ghost is yearning to find a friend Not visible but his thoughts pretend He needs someone, he needs Alarming as it may seem, I never wanted you to dream To leave me again, would be a sin Why sleep again? To leave me again, would be a sin Why sleep again? Why are flames burning without any air? Shadows lurking still but theirs no-one there The ghost is crying now, putting out the flame It doesn’t bother them but he still needs her Man is dying by the side of the road This man is dying, why? he just doesn’t know Perhaps one day he will, never be alone But now he is well aware that the flame is out Now he is well aware that the flame is out Now he’s out But to leave me again, would be a sin And now she’s leaving again, Now she leaves me again And to leave me again, it would be a sin Written July 13th, 2001 © on Feb 26 2002 03:30 AM PST   10 • 0 • 1
