Masks of Illusion
One million words cannot describe,
What I wanted to say to you,
I want to write the ultimate love song,
To make up for all my failures,
To outdo this denial.
All senses working overtime, I'm overwhelmed,
But I just want to melt in surrender;
Didn't know I was still like this,
I fooled myself with clever schemes and dreams,
I was so alone I had to be a star.
Release all my emotion in the now,
Touch me with reality of your warm skin,
Transcend time and take me in,
Forever touching through the mirrors of the soul.
Everything that's ever happened,
Brought me once again to you,
Holding my pain inside,
I'm just an actor,
For you to see through.
Hiding in our mind games,
Failing to be in simple love,
The child within beckons laughing,
Seeing through all my masks of illusion.
