“Past”


I dream of sleeping without a ghost in my dreams

I scream trying to turn the reflection of fantasies

I turn the table to taste my own tongue

I’ll stay here and watch you run

Oh it’s slightly the same, the only difference you’re in a frame


There’s a flash it’s all gone, my hand no longer yields yours.

No longer welcome behind your door in the bed with what I adore.


This is words

Words we have heard

Heard before, sounds absurd


I sleep of dreaming with ghosts in my bed

I whisper to fantasies screaming for morning sun

My tongue tastes of blood at this table

Our dreams are now but another fable.
