Love's MirageA Poem by Dave W.Be careful the false idol you create.......
More in love with the idea of being in love than the,
investment of love, the sacrifice of love, the commitment of love. Fleeting flights of fancy, she doesn't exist outside of the mind, this one who has been made, a habitation of the heart, she could never live up to the expectations, this one with, perfect features, perfect temper, perfect understanding, perfect support, perfect love, that's not her. This love from afar off, this love of a dream girl, she vanishes in the morning, only longing remains. Love will never match this image, forever chasing a shadow, forever looking for that oasis on the horizon. This is a selfish, self absorbed, self defeating love. There will never be satisfaction, as long as a phantom, is the object of affection.
