7 SensesA Poem by Hazem ElashaalMy mind roams the fields of fantasy, Visualizing my depiction of romance, The thoughts of us synchronized, It's just self-deception as an answer to my pain. My eyes see through the deception, It reveals the images hidden by the deceit, A lone person in a room of many, This picture is a mirror, I see myself. To be understood is quintessential, The sense of perspective is very important, I am an expert, I see through all eyes, But only I see through mine. I hear the chatters of the crowd surrounding me, They say I'm not who I know I am, I can't trust them, they don't understand, I hear myself being misunderstood. The scent of love is a high, It smells like blood, like iron, This scent invokes panic and confusion, I have never smelled it before. Love is tangible, it has a source, it can be felt, It is addicting, It is always avoiding me. Attempts at love have left a bad taste, I have only had false promises and deceit, Is the real thing sweet, sour, or spicy? It's probably an unknown flavor as it is indescribable.
