The Illusionist and His Mermaid
When I loved you, I’m glad I didn’t know
That I’d have to let you go
I’m glad I didn’t see the lies
When I was drowning in your eyes
When the water became my air
And my tears soaked into my hair
How I loved you inside your stare
My illusionist who was never there
This mermaid trick, I held my breath
I didn’t know that I had none left.
