Hallucinations
I
saw you walking
Only yesterday
When I ran to catch you
You disappeared
And
the street was gray The
candle died
Now you are gone
For the flame was too bright
Now you are
gone I
heard you laughing
With your laugh of gold
When I called out to you
Silence
returned
And the air was cold The
castle fell
Now you are gone
And no more rings the bell
Now you are gone
I
found a letter
On the day it rained
When I tore it open
There in my hands
Only
ash remained The
castle fell
Now you are gone
And no more rings the bell
Now you are gone
I felt
you breathing
As I fell asleep
When I reached to touch you
No one was
there
And the night was deep The
candle died
Now you are gone
For the flame was too bright
Now you are
gone I
saw you walking
Only yesterday
When I ran to catch you
You disappeared
And
the street was gray The
castle fell
Now you are gone
No more rings the bell
Now you are gone
