The Magic Man

"The magic man"
     In the land of lost hope and a dope filled dish,
     I met a serpent and his name was wish.
     He had a partner with ten thousand plans,
     who went be the name of magic man.
     Across the grave yard stood a beautiful tree,
     that's where the serpent began to speak to me.
     " Why are you alone?" "why do you look so sad?"
     "What happen to your world and all of the things that you had?"
     I opened my mouth because I wanted to speak,
     but it was just to much,
     I was just to weak.
     Then around the corner stepped the magic man,
     he taught me his ways and I became part of his plan.
      I stepped into the darkness and away from the light,
      the day the serpent grabbed my hand and took a bit.
      As the venom took over and stole my breath,
      I realized a little to late that I was in love with my death.
