illusion of love

Drowning in the illusion of love
fallen wings to elude from the dilusional world
can't break free from this prison cell
heart says to walk in this beautiful turf
mind narates of its treacherous curve
and of the dangers that lure this ground
 
rose gardens painted red by the blood of preceding ones
woods grown to devour the bravest ones
rivers that can wash away the strongest ones
hidden under the cloak of a beautiful white swan
women are the worst kind of all, fair they may seem
white knights who defeated all only dare to whisper of her
heart as black as the devil's own den
soul that can even burn the king of the hell
even a rumor of their presence scares the wits out of everyone 

a voice speaks that the truth is at the end of the realm
walk it through with soul of the purest one
never rest in the place and rot yourself
wings will break, legs will cramp
bones may break, you may talk tough
but you will bleed rough
sit not till even lost your will
i make a deal to guide you till 
you have the last ray of hope left in you still

    Love is a life force in itself, and is a wonderful thing when it goes right. But, of course, it can cut to the bone and scar for life. A powerfully written piece. Some marvelous imagery here! Regards, Robert.

    very interesting write. I suspect there is someone or was. But the feelings are clear. Especially the white knight part. Love is a good thing and i believe you have tasted its brinjal part
