Presumptive perception…
Hypocritical hypotheses…
She never knew…
Never cared to find truth…
Too mired in bitter disappointment…
Averting ignorance…
Blatant flirtation with denial…
Feeding self-gratification’s insistent need…
΅〜 ೋღ ❁ ღೋ 〜΅
She only cared for indulgence…
Her voracious need to be desired…
No thought to its destructive aftermath…
She doesn’t mind the cost for she thinks it’s someone else’s debt…
΅〜 ೋღ ❁ ღೋ 〜΅
Duteous devotion…
Enchantment’s spell broken…
Crystalline vision…
Truth’s dichotomy revealed in Ego’s insatiable delight…
΅〜 ೋღ ❁ ღೋ 〜΅
She seeks selfish seduction…
Unknowingly denying herself what she needs most…
True love’s healing embrace…

Tumultuous emotions…
Dilution of enchantment…
Enticing facade permeates…
Truth’s Obscurity…
All ways on the edge of reality’s intention…
΅〜 ೋღ ❁ ღೋ 〜΅
Discombobulated senses…
Confusion…
Choice…
Hidden all ways is that fragility of spirit…
Longing for everything…
Longing for nothing…
Be strong…be wise…be the carefully crafted charade…
Safety in the shadows…
΅〜 ೋღ ❁ ღೋ 〜΅
Delicious ambiguity…
On the edge…
Decision’s deviation…
΅〜 ೋღ ❁ ღೋ 〜΅
Illumination’s Absence…

This is my illusory image…the projection of myself. A paradox within the very masquerade I portray. I am not that which you think you see when you look at me. Quite the contrary…I am that which I choose to see. Reflection’s surreality is the lie. If you look with intent…truly discerning in your journey to discovery of what is or is not real. Then your rewards will be enlightenment, illumination, understanding. Even more so…you will see what I see…beyond the façade…the charade built over the years of life’s trials and tribulations…The interpretation of faux projection bearing no semblance of truth. You will see so far beyond the layers of lie…so as to truly see yourself when you look into me…your mirror.

As if from nowhere…
Suddenly you were there…
You knew me, better than I knew myself…
I recognized you even though you were unknown…
Intoxicating inception…
~*~
Soft sensuous whispers of promising adventures to come…
Laughter…joy…peace…trust…
Excited anticipation to know and be known again…
Seduction by words…
~*~
Reality comes crashing in…
Doubt…fear…uncertainty…
This can not be real…
You are my imagination’s foolish figment…
I realize the truth…
You can not be here….
This can not be real…
~*~
The mind rationalizes the irrational, to protect itself…
Dichotomy in a dream…
~*~
Dare I risk tempestuous temptation?
What if…
A whole plethora of what if’s…
~*~
If I want to live…
If I want to truly experience life…
Then I must accept the terrifying risk…
That when I awake from this desirous dream…
You…disappear…

Sometimes it’s too hard…
This battle fought within the mind…
It is an illusion to think you can’t handle it…
A luxury you can’t afford…
Just because you choose not to see.
Doesn’t make it less real…
Doesn’t make it right…
Hiding the minds eye from the truth won’t make it go away…
Everyone has hard choices to make..
At some point you have to realize what lies before your eyes…
You hid for far too long thinking it couldn’t happen to you…
Thinking it was for the best…
Ignoring of the casualties of cruelty..
Choosing the perceived stronger side…
Believing the lie…while the truth stared at you waiting to be recognized…
Knowing in your heart it was wrong..
Too far from your reality…
Now it’s coming closer to you…
Truth is impatient…
It will be seen…it must…
You can no longer hide behind your chosen ignorance…
