do i smile once more on your naivety my dream
or do i grimace at this melancholy
do i stare unblinking into the sun
or do i pretend its the moon instead
do i look into your eyes deep and accept how near yet how far
or do i just close my eyes and dream on
do i let myself feel the warmth of your presence
or do i let the cold of life make me shiver
all imaginary questions i know, my oasis
but you won't ever know how it feels
these endless years in the desert
only to find my oasis was just a mirage
