Illusionary Handling
There it is
Just out of reach
If you grab it -
It will fall over the edge and take you with it.
An illusion
Not really there
Taunting you to act -
It seems so easy don’t let it trick you.
Some kill for it
Or so they think
But lose it trying to gain it -
Left with nothing but to face it.
There’s a secret
Only it knows
But here’s a hint -
Let it go and you’ll get it.
