Illusion©





Can you hear the gentle winds blow?

Are you inspired by the shine of the moon?

Like you, it’s not as it appears



The shine… an illusion

Fools …like your love

The glow …like the one that captivated my heart

It’s merely a reflection of the sun



Someday, maybe after a long long while has passed

You’ll see through your mirrored paradigm

Your soul will truly come to realize

How much you were loved



Wisdom takes time

Sometimes takes a very lonely night

To make one see the difference

That like, is a feeling, while love, is divine



Then again,

maybe you’ll never ever see

That my love with all my heart, Sunshine…was unconditional
