Shattered Hollows

Written: August 30, 2023 ______________________________________________________________ In the world of love, where illusions reside, Where hearts can be bruised and souls collide, We chase the echoes of a pixie tale. Believing in love will never fail. But for many, love was a ceaseless rain. Pouring down with tears of pain. Love is not a storybook delight. But a torment that haunts us day and night. Heartache and despair are its loyal friends. Scarring our souls until the suffering never ends. Love is an avalanche of emotions untamed, A painful, deceitful game that cannot be tamed. It shines as brightly as a brilliant flame. Still, it ultimately fades as a crying shame. A hoax that vanishes in the wink of an eye. With only misleading claims, lies, and cries. It's a myth, a tale full of risk. That can leave us broken and lost in the abyss. In the world of love, where illusions reside, We must learn to navigate the tide. Although love hurts, it has the power to mend. If we shed the past, we free ourselves to bend. It may be tough, but we must not yield hope. Love can provide unfathomable bliss and scope. In the dreamlike world of romantic love. It is true that pain and crashes might shove But in the throes of the chaos and strife Love has the knack to restore us to life. Though pixie tales may paint a picture so bright, Love is a journey, not just an overnight. It's a roller-coaster of emotions we ride, With twists and swirls that cannot be denied.
