Fabric of Illusion

 

Touch me with your words

And I will turn them into song

And I will sing them to myself

When nights are cold and long

 

Touch me with your laughter

And fill my heart with gladness

That I may use it as a potion

To soothe on days of sadness

 

Touch me with your dreams

And I will weave them into mine

For promises made in dreams

Will stand the test of time

 

But do not touch me with your eyes

For it will only blind my sight

To the shadows in your soul

That are hiding from the light

 

Nor do not touch me with your kiss

For it will only break my heart

It tears the fabric of illusion

That keeps reality and dreams apart.
