Confusion Confounds

No one faces lost love rationally, forgoing all their romantic notions. For confusion confounds reality, when running a gauntlet of emotions. Doubt anonymously attacks with guile, its impact devastating to dreamers. And fears flourish on the remains of trust, disrupting slumber with nightmare screamers. You've been fed a concoction of lies, a highly emotional potent mix. And you're no longer able to forgive, shielding your heart behind a wall of bricks. Wallowing in your pain, you shun support, as fantasies conceived in love, abort. (Sonnet) 10/12/2017
