Old tales

~

Love plays a wicked game

Teases me with a fantasy

Snatches away that perfect fruit

Taunt’s me with a possibility

Silent whispers to the ear

False looks in the eyes

Trying to break my resolve

Bring me to my knees

A tease of fantasy

Lingers in my dreams

Long lost what could have been

Oh, what could have been

If only I realised

Made into a reality

Trying to live out a dream

What am I to do now

Move on and dream again

Wait for heartbreak to call once more

Heavy hands on the door

Hollow eyes dried out

Seen all this before
