The Illusion of Love

I've hiked through the mounts,
Fallen off cliffs, drifted on an iceberg and landed in the Alpes.
I've heard the sweetest birds sing for the devil.
Seen the wild hop the dance of death. I've felt the winds turn over the clouds,
The acid of the sea brush against supple skin, bringing forth the peel of dirt.
I've touched the scorch of fire,
Grasp the growing pear like vines.
The spewing flood, drowning the very fish which heed life in it.
And I have felt the silence - the hole in the universe
Where lambs seem a bedlam.
The is the black that blanks out the faith.
But amongst these, a magic wand waves the sky into the heavens
The illusion of love.
