Illusions

i’m lost in my dreams
nothing is what it seems
illusions engulf the lonely.
i’ve lost my one and only

to a demon in the dark,
the beast has left its mark.
please dont leave me here,
where everything that i fear
has come out to play.
this is the price that i must pay.
i’ve lost my ability to forgive
my will to live.
there’s no “us” anymore
you’ve turned your back, you’ve closed the door.
i sat and watched as we fell apart
with the pieces of my broken heart.
there is a mirage of you, so distant
like your love, it disappears in an instant.
illusions engulf the lonely
destroying all that is holy.
trying to escape reality
hiding inside insanity.
this world is cold yet infernal
my pain is eternal.
