Illusion

First it was there...

Then it was gone...

Then it was back again.

Was it magic,

Real or imagined,

Or was it just slight of hand?

Wizardry's easy when

Played to an audience

Of young impressionable minds.

Innocence entertains without question

The story as it unwinds.

How sad that growing up

Breeds skepticism...

The loss of an innocent age.

Illusion is wasted,

Delusion forsaken.

Maturity turns the page.
