illusion

A piece of writing about a girl who gave a boy a false represention of love

You faded out of existence 
The ghosts of our memories haunt the planet we once lived in
I can still taste the blissfulness of your kiss
In my dreams
Reality,
Has become a nightmare eclipse by loneliness.

Having withdrawals
I am an addict
Craving for your touch,
A drug that once enticed a state of perpetual euphoria.

Reminiscing about the conversations about “forever”
An ideology so foreign to my ignorant heart
You
Only You
Made me oblivious to the ticking clocks
They seemed irrelevant when I was lost (and found ) in the mystery of your hypnotizing eyes.

Your soul
A magician in a simplistic way
Presented an illusion of “love”
I 
For one
Fell for it
Without remembering that illusions are not meant to be real.

I really loved reading your poem. It's a thing to see this actually happen. In fact, it is very relatable. I love how the poem was structured and paced. It truly was an emotional piece that reflected the desire that could never be fulfilled...which unfortunately follows us all...coming up when it really shouldn't... Amazing poem!

I enjoyed reading your poem, your sentence structure is unorthodoxed and I would like to ask if you wrote it this way to control how it would be read? I look forward to reading more of you work.

Very well written! This illusion of love happens more often then
love really happens, in this case painted by a young lady, but
unfortunately many times we do it to ourselves:(
Thanks for sharing and b-blessed!
