Love Lost or an Illusion

What's it that weighs down this little heart
Heavy with the trials and tribulations
Set by the world, it believes
Or is it self-imposed, self-inflicted pain?

The heaviness, the weariness,
The loneliness in this crowded place
What's it that gnaws and claws deep wounds
In dark places that don't seem to heal or exist

What's it that knocks and tugs at this heart
Inexplicable, deep feelings
Of love, of loss, of betrayal, of love lost
Or is it all just an illusion?
