Illusions
#WritcoPoemPrompt48
Write a poem about a time that your illusions of someone or something were shattered.

I used to love to think that you'd come back
And pretend I had the faith
On my heart were all these tears and cracks
and all this empty space

I used to sit around and depend
on your promises coming true
but all that made was this horrid trend
of crying over you

But now my illusions have been shattered
After all this time I've traded
My voice resonates through all this clatter
And my soul is serenaded

My dreams and reality have regained it's line
I've taught myself to smile
I insist that I am fine...
Even though it's been a while
