Just a game?
Just a toy?

Maybe a place that's not real
Those are the things
We all try to steal?

Are they the words
The ones we said for ourselves?
The times we knew
We had lied

The hopes we tried to find
Sunken in a  secret treasure chest
And the stars that would fall
That we could not catch

Illusions we soon would realize
They would show themselves
Painfully too real....
Yet, not real enough to feel?
Only what we chose to see or hear
Others who would lie
Beneath the dark fallen sky

And there is nothing we can do
But watch and wait

An illusion....
Not true

Nothing there....
Not even you

Love is an illusion, hopes are like cobwebs?
Great thoughts here?  But I am here I am real!!!!   Good stuff here, thought provoking.
