Illusion
You played my mind
With that tricky style
That untamed shimmer in your eye
Leaves my world upside down
You disappeared like Houdini
And came back with nonchalance
You shared a new world
Then took it all back
You held me and soothed me
You whispered love to my soul
But you lied, and you stabbed me
Yet I stand tall, unbroken
You are too real to be real
Too believable to believe
