Analysis of Love's Reality—Unreal
Your lies much more exciting,
than any truth you never told
Stolen moments of pure delight,
a fantasies cuckold
Your touch hides what your eyes cannot,
my dreams you come to steal
Your body moves, your heart lays still,
love’s reality—unreal
(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2017)
