double edged sword

Love is a Samurai's double edged sword
It cuts deep and bleeds, but deceives like Hell's mother
Softer than feathers when you need to be pampered
Love is a liar that whispers kisses to an innocent heart
Then screams in ecstasy only mad passion can quell
Love burns in waves until it cools, flooding dark valleys
Showering lovers in geysers that mist the eyes in mystery
Masking nymphs behind waterfalls in howling thunderstorms
Crashing down in cloudbursts that drowned out validated fears
Until reality casts a rainbow in invisible shades of solitary gray
Where all that seemed real was just imaginary layers of wonton reverie
Opening a doorway to begin the sanguine chase all over again
