Beautiful Disillusion
Candle bright affection
is melting
Trust is on the wane,
our love light is flickering
Vows of fidelity
was such a beautiful beginning
Heartfelt words spoken with sincerity
had no echo fear of ending
This love burned so bright,
but only for a short time
Until waxen tears of disillusion
started doubt dripping
Beautiful plans,
glowing promises dissipated so fast
Passionate hope
with a cold lip stroke turned into ash
Fiery vows of fidelity
was such a beautiful beginning
Lovely scented words waxed with sincerity,
they had no wick fear of ending
Now, beautiful disillusion
has waning hope tearfully melting
Flickering doubts,
trust is sorrowfully wavering
Paraffin emotions ... scarlet strain
of a twined, tallow heart
is burning at both ends with pain —
A sad start of living apart
