Illusion's Grace

Love floats like a thistle
drifting about my mind
blossoming suddenly
catching me by surprise.

 

Finding myself beside you
addicted to your voice
fitting your words
into my dreams.

 

Fearing the heart's infallible logic
will soon dispel the magic,
reveal the fatal flaw, and
leave me floating in the breeze.

 

Hoping for the miracle
that lies in like minds meeting.
Illusion's grace surrendered
because the truth's persistent.

 

And stronger than the lies
that lovers weave about their eyes.
