What I Am

I am what I am ,a mystery as it seems                
                             when I close my eyes in death,
                              you will be in my dreams 

                             I am here because ,I can forever never die .
                                 when I close my eyes to see I can touch the sky.
                                
                              I am a wickedness simply born of man ,
                               I will lick your lips , and touch you when I can.

                             I can still taste your flesh as you walk away,
                                it seems you have me on your breath
                                   and there I'll always stay.
                              I'm lost within your mind ,
                                 but with your thoughts I'll play .

                               You can see -clearly now,
                                The things that should never be .
                                  and when you look in the glass,
                                 my face is all you'll see
                                    And when you turn away.
                                  I shall forever be......

                                                                     James
