Thoughts of you amuse,
confuse and abuse me.
Why do you constantly refuse,
then ask me to come back for more?
I swear, Love is insanity,
thinly disguised.
I rip off the veil of it,
only to find you aren’t hiding…
you aren’t really there.
So where are you?
In the sanity of me you are real.
But I am insane,
from musing thoughts of you
that profoundly confuse me;
your absence of heart
abuses me night and day.
My muse says
I should tell you
to go away.

Kacy,
I'm sure that I've spent some time right here.
(actually, more time than I care to consider)

Glad to have the company

Sorry to hear that, Ed. But c'est la vie.
I prefer misery to nothingness.

this is a very good poetic description of a place we all know
perhaps the answer is that we love an illusion of our own creation

Arthur, are you reading my mind? LOL, you are so right about us loving our illusions. Especially in cyberland.

The idea of tearing off a thinly hidden veil
and finding no face?

*shiver*

That alone
makes this poem worth it.

I honestly can say I understand where this poem came from.  Sad to say but more than once.

Good write of emotions and thoughts
