Are You Real
Are you real or are you an illusion
Like a fata morgana beyond my reach
Imprisoning me in this cell of seclusion
Fading away when I beg your beseech
Teasing me with temptation and desire
Helpless and weak like ashes gone gray
Chilled from the embers of my own pyre
You but to vanish by fading away then
My empty arms left with nothing to hold
Just this mirage, this mirage in disguise
You my beautiful Gaia, a dream untold
Me wanting you real before my eyes
