Paper Is Blank - Winter's Verge

With pencil in hand a blank paper stands

In front

Awhile world awaits me, whatever that

Comes to mind

I ran to the lake, she sat there but hid

Her face

I reached out to touch her but she

Vanished without a trace

I wish I could see your face in the dream

The more that I try my colors will dry

Your face disappears like it has through

The years

And all that I have is a paper that’s blank

I re-live my dreams, but nothing appears

It seems

Why can’t I remember?

Why does this

Torment me?

From nightfall to dawn, sleepless for

You I call

Reveal your face to me, 'Tis you that I

Wish to draw

I wish I could see your face in the dream

The more that I try my colors will dry

Your face disappears like it has through

The years

And all that I have is a paper that’s blank

You demon, you witch, reveal your face

To me

I cannot stand this thing I will die!

Madness or hate or love you see

Through me

Only a glimpse I beg tonight

I wish I could see your face in the dream

The more that I try my colors will dry

Your face disappears like it has through

The years

And all that I have is a paper that’s blank

The paper is

Why can’t I touch you?

Shattered dreams

This madness is driving me insane!

My canvas is blank
