she fell in love with a subterfuge of a human, manipulating words into timely and recurring emotions. turning smiles into idiosyncrasy and crying into yore. Act One he started off easy, with the tip of a hat and a sly smile so thin you'd walk a tight rope across it Act Two he had a way with words that swept you off your feet without fail nor hesitation. twisting love into lust, and happiness into heartbreak, and there's nothing you could do to stop it Act Three as the final act prevailed, he left with a surprise. playing with her heart strings like a talented guitarist. a song so beautiful she seemed to dance little did she know, she was dancing on strings Prelude as you see, that was his trick. turning a girl into a puppet helplessly relying on the strings she was suspended upon so if i may, i bid you with this, never trust a magician because a magician never reveals his secret, nor his tricks
