Halloween

The night is still
And the frost it bites my face
I wear my silence like a mask
And murmur like a ghost
Trick or Treat
Trick or Treat
The bitter and the sweet
The carefree days
Are distant now
I wear my memories like a shroud
I try but words collapse
Echoing
Trick or Treat
Trick or Treat
The bitter and the sweet
I wander through your sadness
Gazing at you with scorpion eyes
Halloween … Halloween
A sweet reminder
In the ice-blue nursery
Of a childish murder
Of hidden lustre
And she cries
Trick or Treat
Trick or Treat
The bitter and the sweet
I wander through your sadness
Gazing at you with scorpion eyes
Halloween … Halloween
