ILLUSIONS

Image Source: www.moillusions.com

Life Might Be A Reality
But It Is Tainted
Stained By A Million Illusions
Blemished By Hopes And Trepidations

We Build Ourselves Humongous Castles 
On Sands Of Dreams And Aspirations
We Coccoon Ourselves With Hopes Of Calm And Unyielding Happiness,
Of Serenity, Togetherness and Other Enchanting Apparitions

We Also Have Phantasmic Visions
Of Impending Dangers, Of Death, Of Gore,
We Muddle Our Thoughts With Gory Hallucinations
Of Charred Bodies And Scarred Souls

But Then Again, I Wonder
What Life Would Be Without Our Illusions
Without Things To Strive For, Things To Protect Ourselves Against,
Life Would Be Nothing But A Lifeless Misconception

“Please, don’t destroy people’s lies, their illusions, because if you destroy their illusions they will not be able to live at all; they will collapse.”
 - Friedrich Nietzsche
