Life is just a Mirage

Beautiful oasis you share with all
life is one such a fantasy too
we all know that today we are
tomorrow we may not be
'twill be an imagination
a real illusion may call it thee

but life transforms
from diamond to steel
and
in the cauldrons of times heat
we all melt too
what of a superficial mirage say you

We are as naught
all hope you knew
as we approach it
the further it moves

life so does evaporate too
a hallucination is what we all are

Me, we, he, she and you

Lovely Lovedly. some may say the universe, a crime without a criminal

"a voyeur possessed
of a fictional self in a run on dream
of passed and future
absent of a present"

If a hallucination permitted to make a comment, I like your poem and its genuine sadness.
If not permitted, I will nod silently.

really floor me
owing to a failing in me
i CAN'T decipher clearly
Anyway thanks to IRIZ
who at least nods for me
