Fragmented Fantasies

Crushed under the hand of fate, misery shadows my day. For looking into your eyes, I saw hope crumbling away. Fragmented fantasies morphed into long-forgotten fears. And dreams began to flounder, in a sea of fallen tears. When feelings felt out of place, suspicions began to rise. And yet, ignoring the truth, I closed my eyes to your lies. But now that you have left me, my whole world's falling apart. And I don't know what to do, or even worse, where to start. (Quatrain) 10/21/2015

Love makes us close our eyes to many things...even when the alarm bells won't stop ringing. Thanks for sharing these emotions.
