Mirage

Your touch was moonlight on my skin A silver promise from within We built our dreams on ocean foam Where phantom hearts could find a home The fireworks faded in your eyes Like dying stars in morning skies Now only echoes softly call From empty halls where we would fall We were the fireflies in the storm... A desert rose without a form... You built me castles made of mist... Where phantom lovers still exist... Your words like sand through open hands Lost in the hourglass of plans I traced the shadows on the wall Of memories Ican't recall Thebeacon's light that seemed so true Dissolved inmorning's ocean blue This afterimage in my mind Is all that I was left behind We were the fireflies in the storm... A desert rose without a form... You built me castles made of mist... Where phantom lovers still exist... When fireworks fade to ashen grey Do dreams continue anyway? This hollow space between the notes Is where my floating hope still floats We were the fireflies in the storm... A desert rose without a form... You built me castles made of mist... Where phantom lovers... still exist...
