not what you seemed....

[yoUr bLiSS]

once upon a time
i stumbled upon you
and your world
always a bit too eager
i instantly carved myself
a little space in it
and so your world embraced me
sucked me into it's vibe
drew me into it's excesses
and you
"this charming man"
instantly intoxicating
coming off so elegant
so grand
yet taken out of your element
your true self emerges
and the image you portray
far exceeds
the person you truly are
tell me...
how is it
that such a tainted soul
can possess so much beauty?
so much talent?
and how is it
that this much talent
this much beauty
can be bestowed upon
one with so little substance?
your world has now
become mine
your friends mine also
and that i thank you for
for there truly is magic
at the bottom of those stairs
but you
once so radiant
pale glowing stars
tinted with a hint blue
towering above all
spinning pure magic
you
simply an illusion
you are
merely a tall
blue-eyed boy
with an ego
spinning records
at a club...

So he's a legend in his own mind?

Talent doesn't necessarily equal substance, unfortunately.
