Bend the light into my eye

Distant blur, shifting hue

Last breath left for the changing sky

Uttering "Could that be you?"

Taking form of past desire

A horizon lit with fire

Strewn across the plane I find a path, leading me toward your hollow grasp

Traverse the distance just to bring you close

Eyes wide open now I've seen your ghost

Oh, material, fade away

This grand illusion has come to play

It's a hoax, but I can't help but think you're real

Must not provoke this in fear it will leave me

A once high held affinity

Ever changing at different lengths

This illusory appearance is now lacking strength

Observed with the eye, deceived within the mind

A mirage of vacant kinship brought forth in time

Back to the horizon to haunt the next

Blind victim which you shall vex
