Cycle Of Love Hate



Caught in the cycle of love hate,
she sells her soul to please her heart.
A tangle of emotions that
lead to inevitable hurt.

In her fantasies she still smiles,
although happiness is fleeting.
And in a world of make-believe,
conjures hope out of denial.

Wrapped in a dismal shroud of blue,
dreams dwell on melancholy thoughts.
While misery lurks in shadows,
eggar to invade her sad heart.

Her faith was impenetrable,
yet it failed to protect her heart.
And as lies steered her from the truth,
illusion begot delusion.

She's divorced from reality,
obsessed with unrequited love.
And teeters on the very edge,
of despair and insanity.
