Illusions

I see you standing under a tree

It seems you are waving at me

Is it hello or goodbye?

Are you here to stay or is it time to die?

I close my eyes and smell you in the air

I open my eyes only to see you are not there





You’re just an illusion

A figment of my imagination

An image of my recreation

You’re just an illusion





I saw you there without a doubt

My mind brought you here and the wind took you out

Trying to forget is just something I cannot do

I can’t seem to erase the memories of you

You are everywhere I seem to be

Here you are again back to play tricks on me







You’re just an illusion

One only I can see

A sacred piece to my insanity

You’re just an illusion





Visions subside

Deep inside

But they never go away

They just wait for their day

There is nothing I can do

I will always remember you

The visions surface once more

Starting again just like before







You’re just an illusion

Just an illusion

Is it all in my head?

Or is it that I’m dead?

Just an illusion

You are…an illusion

You again…staring at me

Cannot believe…everything you see

You are an illusion
