a memory of you

silver eyes painted my world
on the way through the heavens
my soft stairs as a silken bed
i waited a sign to stay

as the spirit left that weary soul
a miracle appeared within misery
she came close, held my hands
yet i couldn't say...

she thought, she smiled
as if my eyes played an illusion
its last trick to my mind
how i couldn't say...

i lost the memory of you
if only you would be real
my arrogant sanity belied me
never will i say???
