ILLUSIONS OF LOVE



There is the time for joy and sorrow,
the time to lend and time to borrow
yesterday's feelings for tomorrow.
(Then comes confusion -
love is illusion.)

It's passion warms in heavy rain,
to control it we try in vain,
gives little pleasure, lots of pain.
(Remains conclusion:
love is delusion.)

When lost, it turns our heart in stone.
Since we can't bear to live alone,
on happiness we take a loan.
(Lifeblood transfusion -
lover's allusion.)

So comes the end and then fresh start
with promise that we never part.
Being in love is hardly being smart.
(Instead of fusion -
double seclusion.)
