Reality Past the Fantasy

Deception is what you see
What you're thinking to be real
The way they spoke intently
Your heart they'd quickly steal

A flirtation back and forth
Made you feel good inside
Cuz they seemed to see the north
Of what you thought had died

Giving you heaps of attention
Texting you all day long
Never did they stop to mention
How they were doing you wrong

You were having a good time
Allowing things to go deeper
Forgetting there's a fine line
Forgot reality, fantasy seeker

Look before you leap
Explore all of your options
Prematurely falling steap
Crash into liar concoctions

Seek to look past a flattering tongue
Cuz yes men are only for some
Ill intentions hidden by handsome
Cuz you were never their only one

See past the fantasy for something real
Something grounded that evil cant steal
Let time do it's thing to reveal
Reality past fantasy, what's sealed!

Thanks lady! As people sometimes we have the tendency to lead with our feelings and not with our heads. If we just take a look around we could solve a lot of our own heartache through just being real with ourselves and taking our time to get into anything deeper.

Your last stanza is wonderful, particularly your last two lines:

Let time do it's thing to reveal
Reality past fantasy, what's sealed!

Beautiful stuff Caoihme, I appreciate the transformation this poem witnesses.
