When my head lies near yours
I can feel your mind's hands reach out and feel around my dreams
like a hollow space.

I wish that I could haunt your dreams
The way that you haunt mine
Stirring up, upon my pillow
Every waking night.

I do not understand, still
Who or what you are
A faded concept, lost impression
Remnants of a memory?

But every morning that you leave me
I find you've left behind
A shine of star within my eyes
Or words stuck in my throat.
Bare branches claw for low grey skies
Swayed beyond a window's frame

Small hands press up against the glass
They reach in desperation

A means, a reason, less fate for her
She sees in realization

Time, it melts each vow and feeling
all frozen expectation

The skies, the trees, their skeletons
Each pay an alteration.
I couldn't see you or hear you
But I knew you had come
A problem, fabrication,
Concentration on one.

With fingers wrought by impatience
And winter showing its spine
Eyes dart to a movement
To distract all from time.

Not a touch nor a card
deciphered words that slipped by
Past every glance stolen
There embodies a lie.
