Faded Way

"...honey, wake up, you're dreaming again..."

~Who are you?
"... honey, wake up..."
~I forgot my pen! Stop!
"... you're dreaming again..."
~No! I won't go, where's the duck!
"...honey, wake up..."
~Stop! It's the Monk!
"... dreaming again...."

~Who were you?
Who was I back then?

"what do you know..."
~Leave my house,
I want you to go...
"... about a man in a hat?"
~What was that?

" do you know...."
~ water fades to snow~
" a man in that hat?"
"there on the wall, the
shadow that falls..."

And turned did I
with my shaking eyes
and I saw you there in
the hall.

Frozen in time.
My heart in my ears.
How can it be...
After all these years?
~It's you... I can bet,
~ You're the Monk,
in the wall silhouette.

IOU... the shadow say.
the nic nac from the
kitty cat.  Mr.E gamed,
you're here to play.

~Then the Shadow, faded Way...
