I have an apparition in mind
a spirit that wanders endlessly
he is luminous and beautiful

amongst a thousand ghosts
he shines a little brighter
he is like a star, unconsumed

i am the spectre he does not see
my eyes as deathlights blue
as i touch him he fades away

i try to speak his name
but no sound expells
from these shuddering lips

only ancient halitosis pours
from my heart of black sand
hidden from the moon's mockery

i exalt to a sickened limbo
i will become bitter and deranged
if you do not kiss me soon

i am the poltergeist inside
tearing at my own heartstrings
in the abscence of you
weaving precious dreams
