Broken Illusions
#WritcoPoemPrompt48

In times of enchantment, woven illusions,
Firm beliefs, colorful promises.
But time, stern teacher of truth,
He shatters illusions with his cruelty.

Broken dreams, like shattered glass,
The golden age, now in disarray.
Reality, cold and merciless,
It awakens the soul, once so deceptive.

In the mirror of life, deception is reflected,
The illusion fades away, like an insane castle.
In rubble, the heart rebuilds itself,
Learning in pain, what the illusion disposed.
