Illusion


 
Illusion

Whimsical, glorious, fanciful you
illusory gifts you cast into their arms
warming their hearts with a perceived benevolence
you make them believe

Whimsical, glorious, fanciful you
protecting your pretense with locks and with keys
your display of sincerity a sparkling jewel
You gain their trust

Whimsical, glorious, fanciful you
With a princess-like glory you sit on your throne
collecting the spoils you bought with your soul
Not yet aware your illusion will fall

  1. Whoa. This is very deep! Your way with words never fails to amaze.
