Love Gone Wrong

We met and I fell, it was explosive
Desire, lust, blazing through my veins
You burned me up body and soul
I was the only one though
You used me, then went away
What went wrong ?
Am I broken !
Feelings are missing in what we had
Communication, hopes, dreams, and most importantly love.

Shattered Illusions

I dream of many things, none of this reality
Fantasy is the life force that sustains me
To live as I want, however I choose
To change myself at will be someone new
Exciting, sexy, dangerous,hot love and adventure
That is not reality and I know it, yet still I live in dreams
Sad hopeless illusions, can't grasp with hands
They slip through like sand in a sieve
When I wake I cry
Cry for things that don't exist
Cry for the reality that is me, my life
Why must life shatter all illusions of fantasy.
