Notes About The Poem

    

Premiere Contest WinnerLove's Illusion

Love feels like an illusion: a delusional fantasy dream, both magical and surreal. A sensual ploy utilized by lust to steal a kiss: passion's flame burns hotter than fire, until reality kicks in. Suddenly, forever feelings end: and trust falls apart chasing shadows, cast by neon lights. For what is love, but a promise of bliss; garnered from desire's whispered lie?
