Illusion

All I see is the light in me		
Shining bright from the ones I lost	
And left behind, but I'll be alright	
What does not kill me			
Makes me tougher than tough!

Love is an illusion
A nice one but still	
An illusion!			
Chasing love is like			
Chasing the wind
Disappointing				
And vain!

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

To love is its own reward . We must become what we are looking for.The great illusion is thinking we are not connected Enescu .Spend a few days silently loving everyone. I know about death and war. I lost a leg in Viet Nam etc.. Forgiveness and love is all we have. Keep writing.Find love in your heart first and it will draw others love to you. My best wishes Michael.
