We look into our world and see
Only illusions of what is there
We can’t see through the fog in
Our minds and our hearts
The illusion of love is almost as
Pronounced as the myth of the unicorn
Everyone else can see it, but we can’t
We choose not to believe
In what we don’t want to know
We know the truth, deep down
You used to be the sensible one
I was the naïve one
Our roles have been reversed and I’m
Not sure how much more I can take
Illusions are dangerous when
Taken out of context and believed
If it was real, if there was a chance
I might think differently, but I can’t think
In a way that I know is not true
I thought I was in love, but I know I’m not
I love you, but I’m not in love
Don’t ever believe illusions
They aren’t true never have been nor ever will be
Illusions are just games our minds and our hearts
Like to play with us to make our lives interesting
I love you so much
I don’t want to hurt you but how much longer
Can I go on living a way that I know doesn’t suit me?
I just can’t do it any longer I wish I knew an easier
Way out but there isn’t any
I will never ever forget you
As long as I live I will remember you
It’s time for me to say goodbye though
It’s been fun and I’ll cherish the moments we spent
Together and spent talking to each other
You will always be special to me no matter what happens
Always will you be one of my best friends
Catch the tears that are falling from your eyes and
Just remember to smile and that life will get better
Even without me it will get better
You’ll find the girl for you and you will be happy
We'll both be happy when we're no longer living with

Welcome to Passions Skyfire!

We are very happy you have decided to join our community of poetry friendship.

This is a wonderful first post. It is indeed difficult to live with illusions, very nicely expressed. I hope to read more of your poetry and your responses to our wonderful family of poets! (check your e-mail for a special message)

Best wishes,

WELCOME TO PASSIONS!!!  Welcome to you e-poetry family...you'll find people in here to be really nice  

You know, you have almost the same name as someone else in here.  Her name though is Skyfyre.  I think that's the way it's spelled, but she's at open poetry.  She's one of my favorite writers in here.  Well, you both almost have the same way of writing, i guess you both are talented.  I loved every single line i read, so keep em coming.....

Welcome to Passions!! This poem was so amazing, because everything that you said was so real...about illusions being games played by our minds and our hearts.  Great poem!
