Smoke and Mirrors

Smoke and mirrors man the barricade 
  Between us with tricks of the dusk drizzled light; 
And formulates hold to the moments purloined, 
  Hold to the moments, hold good and tight. 
For distance is nothing but veils of smoke, 
  Mirrored, refracted a crafted delusion; 
And love such as ours compose distance a dream, 
  Distance a dream, nothing more than illusion...
