The Deception of Love

When I first met you I was in awe My heart was open and exposed You seemed so special and unique And you were everything I seek We could communicate with our eyes And our emotions could not disguise I felt so safe and so complete And my heart throbbed with every beat We were connected on all levels And in our devotion we would revel But was it all a great illusion Did I assume a wrong conclusion Was it all wrong Was it a huge lie On misconceptions I relied Why did you change Or was that you All that confusion I went through Sometimes love is not what it seems And it beguiles us like dreams Don’t let this enormous feeling scare you Don’t let false promises despair you When love arrives It will not leave And you will never be deceived
