Mirage it was, I ran behind it.
Locked the logic and reasoning,
yielded to my stupid heart!
However much I tried to reach, it alluded.
But, I could see it beckoning.
As I ran towards it,
it was running away from me.
Finally, it just vanished,
No more visible!

I agree it was a mirage,
But, why did I fail to see it before?
Next time, I will lock my heart!
