Hope's Illusion

Romantic dreams are filled with joy, but that is not always the case. For sometimes you're somebody's toy; a collectible, pretty face. Fueled by dreams and delusion; vows lack any sincerity. And embracing hope's illusion, You let lies fog your clarity. When half of a duality, love should not come into question. But viewed in their totality, his lies look like an obsession. Ask yourself why love's on trial; if you believe you have found bliss. And stop living in denial; Happiness is more than a kiss. Doubt weighs heavy upon your mind, so you need to unmask its cause. And though you're scared of what you'll find, confront it and put trust on pause.
