Delusions in Love

Standing here on solid ground
My place I finally found
So safe within a warm embrace
Nothing can go wrong with the warm sun on my face

But then the ground below cracks in three
Reality I now see
My mind divided as I look for me
And then I see his face
On solid ground, still in grace

But he’s so far away
I shout “I love you” and out of fear I stay
And a hand appears much closer now
I want to reach but don’t know how

He grabs my hand and pulls me
The ground below him I did not see
It’s even more cracked than mine
It’s falling apart but he walks like it’s all fine

He’s lived on the broken ground for many a day
He’s been broken so long that he knows the way
But I know now that this is not okay
He leads me down the highway to hell
When I strayed from my love, my soul I did sell

I wake inside a freezing sweat
Glad that’s not the fate I met

But as I look around
That same scene I have found
I’m pushing love away
Moving to another as I stray
Towards the end, my dying day

AHH. I love it! It's so mysterious and your way of words is absolutely beautiful. Maybe you should elaborate more on the theme of this poem and tie it together at the end. Love or death? Great job though.

Very nice choice of word. It makes you feel like your dreaming and seeing all these images.
