Why are you never real?

I’ve been sitting on this piece for a long time. The idea came to me while listening to The Apparition, and I kept going back and forth, never quite ready to call it finished. But at some point, I realized I needed to let it go and share it with the world.

Hope you like it.

Why are you never real? Whenever you appear You leave me with that grace I am trembling with fear But I know that you will disappear Just as I awake, a whisper in my ear
