The Act

Role-playing


I was the Charmer
and you
the Charmed!
I was the Devil
and you
my Lamb!

I fed you promises
I fed you hope
I fed you things
that you craved for

You swayed to
my tunes
You danced to
my beats
You grazed on
the meadows
I created out of
dreams!


Role-reversal


Tired eyes and tired
bodies
retire from the game

Behind the masks
Behind the curtains
After the play
After the lights
are out

Incoherent heart,
mind and soul
Entangled in a web
of illusion and reality

Seduced by the act
Teased by the touch

The Charmer becomes
the Charmed!
The Devil is now
the Lamb!
