My Favourite Illusion

You were never mine.
You, were just an illusion of mine.
A happy illusion.
A soothing one.
The one I never want to unsee.

You were never the person of my dreams.
U were perfect of the opposite.
Never had I imagined about you;
Someone like you.
But somehow,
It didn't matter to me.

I heard my heart tingle;
Like asking for a chance to mingle;
Tired of being single.

I fell;
And hard.

I was in a beautiful place,
One with love,
with one I love.

I woke in a start;
With a pinch in my heart.

The illusion was over for me.
