Fossils of You, Amber
you wrote your name across the sky
you left a tattoo on my eye
your footprints in the lava floe
Magma sealed from heel to toe
a letter with a lock of hair
evidence that you were there
carved on trees and etched in stone
a message beeping on the phone
winter angels in the snow
Music wafting soft and low
your favorite song upon the wind.
Time to show yourself my friend
Hide and seek is not my game
If you're not real the I'm insane
are you only, make believe
or did you just decide to leave?
