The Reality of It

Translucent Light Sable Soul Looked into your depths Found false hope Reality Is not what I was told The harshness was what I was shown Built up while you destroyed Succumbing to your onslaught Duped by words Fooled with flesh Looks like i'd never been seen before Your earthen eyes Tore a hole straight through Bore down to my very core Your effervescence diffused my demure demeanour The lilt of your step The gambol of your stride The opulence of your form The eloquence with which you poured forth the I love yous The prophetic visions of our future All clouded the murmured demise The imbroglio of our current affairs Misplaced feelings Love eludes My feelings true My love yous real My existence reveals the guise of your love towards the chosen Your location makes me no more than a fanciful dalliance Bucolic setting is your gift Mine is a life unraveled Unable to move forward Incapable of turning back your doleful forbearance of words Drives home your intent with more fury than a blade You don't love me You don't love him You love you
