The Illusion

Life is caught between light and darkness

Caught between reality and desire

A beautiful rose in bloom

Is gone far too soon

That child that was playing

Becomes an old man praying

The events we so carefully plan

In time will turn into sand

Power, money, and fame

Can't endure the flames

Let there be no confusion

What seems so real is but an illusion

Life seduces us with pleasures seen

Just one more thing will fulfill my dreams

My life is like a wave upon the shore

All too soon it will be never more

But our hearts entwined our joy we lift 

For life is but a precious gift

All those things I cast aside

It is in you alone that I reside

Your love, that is so hard to explain

Endures all time endures all pain
