In Gardens

Moments collected in iridescent, focused white
Where she moves like she’s dancing
Leaving trails of broken light
Getting lost in the dreaming, heartbroken
Black and grey
If tomorrow awakens, will she remember anything?

And when I look into her eyes
I see myself unrecognized
Reflections in the winter of the soul

And I want to say her name
But she turns and looks away
To wander frozen gardens in her mind

Feeling forgotten, lost and alone
Strangers in faceless time
I’m still searching for reasons
To keep my hope alive

Casting prayers back to heaven
To find the love somewhere inside
Help me pick up the pieces
I won’t leave it here behind

And when I look into her eyes
I see myself unrecognized
Reflected in the silence of the soul

And I have to close my eyes
Reflections almost never lie
So I know that I’m a ghost she used to know

And when I look into her eyes
I see myself unrecognized
Reflected in the winter of her soul

And I’m calling out her name
But she softly walks away
To wander frozen gardens of her mind

And I have to close my eyes
You know reflections seldom lie
And I know that I’m a ghost she used to know
