You are the apparition I see As I walk the empty halls Of my mind An apparition Of a long forgotten hope That has etched itself Onto my long forgotten dreams You walk alongside a regal black cat with white paws But sometimes its a small dog still learning to grow You are the apparition That appears when I am lonely When I have no where else to go But to dwell in the parts of my brain I usually choose to avoid Like a bolted door that falls open sometimes Even though it's bolted for a reason You are the apparition That haunts my daydreams Drowning in sunlight Doused in gasoline One match away from being gone forever You are the apperition Of an arkangel I could never love But loved anyways
