TrIcKs ArE fOr KiDs

Abracadabra
YOU’RE GONE 

But wait 
PEEK A BOO 
I see you

HIDE AND SEEK
you say 
COME FIND ME

But that was then 
THE MAGIC
Is now gone 
SO I’M NOT 
Looking for you 
ANYMORE 

The final trick 
I LET YOU PLAY 
To cut my 
HEART INTO TWO 

But the shitty part 
YOU KNEW 
All along 
THE PAIN 
The hurt 
YOUR INABILITY 
To reverse 
THE TRICK 

Now I remain 
IN PIECES 
Without your
PRESENCE 

Like a rabbit
ABANDONED 
From a magicians hat 
NEVER RETURNED 
Back home 
DISCARDED 
As soon as 
THE SHOW WAS OVER 
No use 
NO PLEASURE 
Just a prop 
TO YOUR AUDIENCE 
A complete fake romance 
OF FALSE LOVE

Brilliant SW, you captured how quickly love can vanish. With that realisation of “was it ever real to begin with?” illusions can be so convincing. Loved this :)
