ILLUSION

All by myself; void inside, void outside.
Hoping for a restful shade;
To life still I clang.
In a flash, a figure sprang in front.
That was the company all my life I sought.
The angel's eyes spoke; feelings they talked.
A spell on me you threw, a loving slave I got..
Fresh, reviving wind caressed my cheeks.
Flowers, roses, lilies covered the hills around.
Streams watered the thirsty heaps of sand.
A sweet heaven battered the desert away.
Like a csar I felt, another ceasar.
The new powerful master of the world.
In my grasp everything was fit.
My hand I stretched to touch you when an
avalanche of thick sand rolled down the hills.
Like a castle of sand, my fancies faded away.
The words your eyes said were a lie.
My heart once again had bent the wrong way.
