    Trap

    My heart was shattered to pieces
    Ripped to remnants of myself
    I was totally devastated
    My heart was a lost remnant of the past
    Love was something terrifying me
    And I tried to accept and love myself
    I strived to believe in a dream
    But everything was destroyed in a blast
    Terror and stupor overcame in my heart
    I was overwhelmed, and I couldn’t help myself
    Seeking freedom from an emotional slavery
    Humiliation and pain crushed the innocence of a primitive love
    An ideal love that exists only as a faded chimaera
    A chimaera of purity and integrity
    A fragment of a nightmare which reduced me to tears
    The teardrops of a painful illusion which was my trap
    The trap of a dreadful and addictive love
    A trap that was the source of all my fears and nightmares
    I was bound and trapped by an obscure dismay
    There is no peace without a candid
    unconsciousness.
