Eros's Deception

Is it gone
Upon the light
Where my mind
gave it a slice
A truth, a figment
I create my mind's
realities, turn them true
Outside this realm
we call existence
We are a game
our feelings fleeting
How can we
justify emotions
when they come
when they're gone
the neurons, hormones
logic, chemical imbalance
Is it here
How does he feel
Is he hiding
Does he know
All along
It might be
he knows the world
Better than I do
I should have
existed, loved
Outside my mind
Translate feelings
Feel their truth
Live with its tugging
In the midst
of people's lives lost
in labyrinths of hate
pain and anguish
It will survive
comes out, in
another package
It could be gone
But it was there
and it could
still be there
lurking, seething
what lust
what love
what chaos
Is not
Could not
Be not
A battle
between the sexes.
