Love's An Illusion

Love is but an illusion; a fantasy that often seems surreal. A sensual ploy to steal a kiss; love exploits intimate feelings. Lovers in a sexual rut; shed no tears, for the other's pain. Passion's flame burns hotter than fire; and then, reality kicks in. And those feelings end, as trust falls apart chasing shadows cast by neon lights. For what is love, but a promise of bliss; garnered from a whispered lie?
