Illusions of You

Periodically,

I find myself going

through emotionless

stages of my life

stillness takes

control of my thoughts

predicting sleepless nights

on any given moment,

her face torture me

in my dreams viciously,

seductive pleasures

crawling under my skin

leaving me with an empty 

feeling of despair.

She was a forbidden fruit 

holding me to promise of love,

following me to the end

of a dark road.

Clouds,

settled over my head

waiting for The Sun

to unleashed forgiveness

On instant,  I reminisce

of days not long ago, where,

The truth came to

set me free,

I was drowning on

glass of water.

The harder I hold on,

 The fastest that I sink in

quick sand welcome

my lonely heart, 

waiting for The rough seas

to past through with a

lazy breeze taking me back

to my sinful escapes.

I could see

The reflection

of my soul walking

blindfolded on The waterfalls of life

pondering why

am I doing here...lost
