The Deceiver

The Deceiver

A Poem by Stephen

This love I seek
I have not found
a myth that is bleak
it serves to confound

Love, I think I find
but a deceiver, 
deceives my mind
makes me a believer,
not realizing i'm blind

I'm but a dreamer,
dreaming my wanted reality
it's so much serener,
than the reality I see

Awake I, more naiver
to Lust I awake,
In my bed, the Deceiver
a terrible mistake
another nonbeliever,
does Lust make
over love, another griever 
another heart, he breaks
Lust, the Deciever

The depth of this piece is just wow!!.. The way you have left your soul bared in your words . leaves me perplexed.Thats the quality of a writer i admire.I must say i am a fan of Romanticism too. :) But speaking about this i love the way you connected every trait -deceiver,dreamer,serener..... pardon me if i forgot any... An introspective piece .You have given me lot to think about today.. *thanks for sharing*
