Poetry / Sweet Addiction

It’s late,
Too late to bring myself to smile.
He has destroyed my hopes
And dreams,
But good reason refuses to breathe
While I suffocate in excuses.
           Why do we fall in love?
Who knows the true meaning of love anyway?
Why is it, that we suffer
For such a cause?
            We bleed our sweet tears
And scream our painless cries,
But we are blind
And foolish.
            Like a rigid rock
That stands amidst a beating storm,
We stand against the truth,
And like children
We protect our delusions.
We pray
That this joy of humility
Is here
Forever.
