A Make Believe
In a corner our eyes did meet.
But I was sitting on the mercy seat.
I looked you over once or twice.
I even rolled the domino dice.
A shadow appeared before me.
At that time I was a make believe.
When the shadow left a light appeared,
Time stopped and distance neared.
I traveled afar and my journey never ends.
Backwards or forwards eternity it sends.
In another lifetime perhaps was I.
Deluded and misled asking why.
But no more I say honestly to you.
Another make believe will never do.
