Deception not so crystal clear
Reflecting pools filled with her tears
Break the ones that you hold dear
Crack the code…Your greatest fear
Things are seldom as they seem
Distant laughter sounds like a scream
A lovely maiden swimming pure and tan
A broken mermaid with a skeleton hand
Raising questions….feed them well
Weaving magic then cast the spell
So hypnotic your brain will swell
Turns chaotic hear the masses yell
Things are seldom as they seem
A passing angel is just a dream
A hidden path to the promised land
Hand drawn maps help to understand
