Soft hair of black
That my fingers ache to caress.
Eyes so
charming, so deep and rich
Like the night or the gold
That
beggars dream of
Like I dream of you.
I see you looking at me.
I know you're trying to figure out
This change that's come over me.
I used to be so carefree
around you,
Completely honest with nothing to hide,
But I
can't be that way any more.
You'd think me crazy if you knew,
If you even suspected so
I
must hide and cling to my dreams,
The dreams that give
True
meaning to my life.
You can't know. You can never know.
You
can't know that I love you
For I know I'd lose you
If you even
so much as suspected.
You think I'm a girl, a child,
But you're wrong.
The girl
you knew is grown.
I'm a woman now,
And I know my own heart.
I
know the man of my dreams,
And he is you. You are he.
You are
one and the same,
And always and forever,
I shall love you,
Even if from afar for all time,
Phantom of my dreams,
King
of my heart,
My so-called "uncle",
My love,
Mandrake.
