I trailed those footsteps which once wreaked my sandcastle
And stormed into my mind with the flitting wind;
The curtains let you pass through, mistaken as one known
Turning my thoughts into a conundrum I myself cease to solve.

Wanted to grip the curtain tight, to clutch it with all my might
But you were already here, standing opposite my back
Needed you just to settle in my mind, then everything will be fine
Invader turned fugitive, you flees out of the window secretly.

Melting collyrium blotted the cold bedsheets, the night drunk in teardrops
Safely put the thoughts in an empty bottle, a message sent unaddressed
The noon waited for dusk, the twilight for the dawn, midnight turned sunup
Memories blurred when revisited, all remained is the fallacy forsaken.
