It
was an illusion.
Something
from the past that I could not
or would
not forget
Your touch
was strange and complex.
It held
me,
imprisoning
my soul.
I searched
for the promise unspoken,
waiting
for words that did not come.
Too late
Now the
illusion is gone.
This is
the hardest thing I’ve ever done
Saying
goodbye to what I thought was the one
It tears
my soul
But, I
tell myself that the pain
will help
me move on
still,
inside nothing feels right
I can’t
say good bye to the one
that brought
sunlight to night.
The nostalgia
of “then”
To my heart
holds tight.
I loved
you
with
my whole self,
you loved
me
for only
the night.
I went
against all
I knew
to be true
I was a
fool;
I was never
more than “then”
to you.
It was only
an illusion
From which
I feel I will never be freed
Nothing
will stop this haunting
By the
ghosts of a fool’s
Childish
hopes and dreams
It was
only an illusion
of a life
never meant to be.
