Illusionist

Illusionist I was, but then to her
I was the king of all sincerity,
Although I clung, the stubbornest of burrs
To my great share of anonymity.

It was as if she were the very stars
Whose distance lessened when I stretched my hand,
And threw me into many inner wars
Till only when she held me could I stand.

When, in the end, we reached the final day,
I watched her fall upon that nameless hill-
The warmth of life, her spirit, blown away-
Hers was a life that only love could kill.

Now, left abandoned to the world of men,
I wish I were "Illusionist" again.
