Illusion

Love was once an illusion
I never saw its deceit.
Chasing the false shadows
I ran everywhere
Tragic that I fell behind
In my mundane life.
Despair crept in
like an unwelcome guest
With him came
Tearful dark nights
And forever grey sunshine.
The folly was evident
After I was left alone
Truth struck me in the end
And I was shattered
Yet I fail to be vanquished.

  1. I could see your profile picture whilst I was reading this and I had a sense of lost love running through the woods..so many roots to stumble on whilst your eyes are stinging with tears..Jae

  3. I am glad Swapna...I hope those woods are a special place - I needed to zoom in and see your happy face and not look at the trees with my own eyes..Jae
