Seven Year Ghost

Crystal illusions fragment my room
Image effusion from pools caught in time
Circles with endings of dreams once assumed
Ideal delusions of visions and signs

Morpheus release me from invisible chains
The key to the pieces of spirit
Floating heavy through vain veins
Sinking lightly with point of fit

Sweeping the mirror of the Seven Year Ghost
filling me with tales told long ago
The mixtures and brews of the brooming host
Mac Duff, the only one who really knows

Tortured fragments of a past once forgotten
Multiple scars that never healed disappear
A talisman worn for years misbegotten
The beginning of hope, ends the nightmare
