A Mirage

I look with scorn 
at this abomination;
Bringing to light a passion,
an angry flame

Fueling a yearning 
I struggle again and again;
A relationship we attempt,
With bright affection 

I taste your  tender inner soul, 
Colorful bloom I cherish you;
Oh, but you Bamboozle me! 
A mirage, brought on by snow

Very cleverly done Melani! I like how you've brought out the deceit, a mirage. Well done!
