There was something that I wanted
To say to you
Before the feeling was drowned
By words
In the moments when the ghosts
Moved amongst us
Like silkworm strands
Their delicate beauty their strength
Eclipsing the hands as they swept away
The stories that we had been sold
Before the skies grew dark above
Our heads
In the days when the ghosts
Drifted from our sight
Like cataract clouds
Their flailing hands now skeletal
Lost behind the numbers that fell from our eyes
Leaving nothing but the dust.
There was something that I wanted
To say to you.
