Forgotten memories
Evade my mind
Trying to pull back
The corners of its bind
I try to reach them
But they dissipate
From my grasp
One day I will
Reach you
Faceless Man
How can I
Dream of you
Every night
Without ever seeing
Your face in real life?
Who are you,
Faceless Man?
I see you
Every time I sleep
You say these words
If only I could
Remember before
My eyes are awake
I would know
The sound of your voice
But you know how
To stay hidden
In the depths of my mind.
