Obscuring fact from fiction; seduction that enslaves!
Our table groans with gifts love owns, in visible profusion;
The banquet ends, yet we pretend -- starved for our illusion.

Friends move on when love has gone;
Its victims court the past.
Sifting though the garbage to keep what cannot last.

Denial to discoverys a long and painful mending.
To lift the slave out of their grave, without a happy ending.

Love is an affliction; which none of us escape.
Having learned that loves return is worth the heart it rapes.

Love is an addiction. It gives us what we crave.
Obscuring fact from fiction; seduction that enslaves!
Our table groans with gifts love owns, in visible profusion;
The banquet ends, yet we pretend -- starved for our illusion.

Friends move on when love has gone;
Its victims court the past.
Sifting though the garbage to keep what cannot last.

Denial to discoverys a long and painful mending.
To lift the slave out of their grave, without a happy ending.

Love is an affliction; which none of us escape.
Having learned that loves return is worth the heart it rapes.
