"Illusion"
It told me it would give me direction
I was lost,so I followed it.
It told me it would ease the pain
I was hurt,so I followed it.
It told me it would make me wealthy
I was poor,so I followed it
It told me it would give me friends
I was lonely,so I followed it.
It told me it would give me strength
I was weak,so I followed it.
It said"forget the people you're hurting".
All I knew to do now,was to follow it.
I followed til i was alone,and nearly dead.
Then I opened my eyes to see what was leading me,
and nothing was there.
