The Mirror Man

You danced into my dreams the way you danced around the world But reaching out you’d vanish from my grasp Nobody could hold you and you didn’t seem real Yet a kid like me never stopped believing That was then, this is now and I still believe in your magic But you’re even more elusive than before Feel your pain I’d reach out to you to show you’re not alone Yet more myth than man you remained untouchable Close yet still so far away, could feel but couldn’t see you Sensing the need, my man TJ threw me into your power Clutching chrome you danced into my life, a mystery man no more Saluting me as I called your name, saw the real man in the mirror Neither myth nor man you came to me, helpless as a child Reaching out to you at last you grasped my hand Your need and desperation in that moment I held you safe And told you so that you were not alone Now you’re gone, a man, a myth, a legend And I wonder whether it was all just a dream I want and need and still believe in magic So close my eyes and find you there once more
