Silhouettes

I'm seeing shadows move across the room, 
I'm seeing things that aren't there and things that will never be.
I'm watching our memories flash across the room like a projector.
I sit silent watching your hands caress my face,
I begin to write and your shadow starts to fade.. 
Then i write and write and continue writing until everything's on paper.
Until there's nothing left to watch dance across the walls, 
like silhouttes in the mooonlight.
