Ignorance is Bliss

Poem about love that is an illusion

Deception is my heart’s retreat 
Entangle me in your deceit
Wrap me up in subterfuge
Drown me in your tale’s deluge

Distort my sight with phony proof
Shield my soul from bitter truth
Swathe me in fictitious bliss
Perjure lust within your kiss

Shroud my flaws in make-believe
Let pretty lies be my reprieve
Choke me with this mock affair
My love will breathe without the air
