There’s a sad air that resides here, it came when the rain began it’s long spell It sits with me as a ghost, an old friend that I have forgotten about It sits with me by candlelight, and watches the flam flicker along with me Curious it wanders across my room, looking at old relics of happier memories, wondering were it all went The low hum of the roof being caressed by the rain, it is the only sound I wish to raise my head towards Outside I look towards the woods, and I see the faint color of faded green From the slips of my window blinds, I can observe the world with a faint smile As the night begins to set, the rain is still blessing us with its presence So I sit with another candlelit moment, as the ghost and I read our stories, to escape the world we breathe in now Now the morning has come, and I’ve seemed to run out of candles The ghost weary from its restless slumber, as am I Another day it seems has come to fruition, another one with the smell of rain As if the world is on a cycle, or merely my mind has begun to bleed reality, into my own dreams
