My Reality Is a Lie

I feel your warm hands on me An intense touch cold and lifeless Your eyes say what should be Our hearts united in perfect oneness But the light’s slowly cleared the shadow And my reality’s a lie so hollow I’ve heard the sound of your voice Heard waves crash the dry shore The will of your command has no choice And I must therefore follow a paid whore But the light’s slowly cleared the shadow And my reality’s a lie so hollow The silent world shares my loneliness They quietly nod in understanding too My solitude rings like a piece of holiness No one dares to see a fault or two Yet, the light’s already cleared the shadow And my reality’s just another lie so hollow.

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.
