Were You Really Here?

An old house, Creaking floorboards, Scary Sounds all around the house, I see the shadows, Pass the doorways, As if searching, For the someone they lost. I feel the magic is in the air, Wishing for a story but, Getting an adventure. Seeing the history from the past, Yet entering into the present. All those times, I should have seen the signs. I looked into their eyes, and I swear I saw the disguise. Imagine my surprise, When they showed their fears and, They realized they weren't really here, So they just disappeared.
