Houdini

Houdini

A Poem by Lizardo

All I want
Is to disappear
When you never trusted me
Like houdini
disappear from stage
and be somewhere else
Where I can be happy
With someone who can love me
And not throw me away
On this world that comes to the end
You never new about what I could do
My ability, You wont know it now

I got many magic tricks on my sleve
Ready to burst out in the show
Show the world who I can really be
I Hidde my tricks from the people
They'll try to bring me down
I want to be someone else
Sometimes I want to dissapear

Up and down
Show and show
Magic and Magic
Not even my biggest trick can save me now
You got what you wanted from  me
Now I'm sitting down here
Chains holding me
In a prison of water
I just want to disappear

I want to shine like the stars
But this chains don't let my fly
I thought about an scape
but thats too coward from me
Trick after trick
This is too much for me
I want to go back in time
And never have met you
I want to go back in time
Where my tricks really surprise people
Time passes by
And now they expect what they see

Chains holding my two arms
Families making me happy
Fear consuming me
Sometimes I want to disappear

Sometimes I want to disappear...

This is an amazing piece. I love the reference to Harry Houdini who most think drowned during an escape act, when he actually died of infection from his appendix and he was always claiming to be able to withstand a "blow" from any man. a man entered his room before a show, he was already feeling Ill and asked him to accept the challenge. Before Houdini could even "tense" up the man struck him in the stomach five times. He the felt ill during the performance and collapsed after walking off stage @ 52 years old. His appendix was ruptured but also was already killing him from being severely infected. so they say? Great Poem

Thank you so much, I really appreciete it!
i felt this way in a relationship...but now she has more regrets than i...she had trust issues, and she disappeared into her fears when we were together.
now she wishes she hadn't...but then things happen for a reason.
i like all the contradiction in the last stanza...
