It was you
the one who pushed me
toward a new feeling
toward something I didn't know.

You decided to call it love
and I liked the idea of it
until you showed me
a couple of love tricks
and made me believe
you were a magician
because you made my heart beats skip.

Just when I thought that was all
you promised infinity
and I was moved by that
but I didn't know you were bad at math
and instead of giving me an infinity
you mistook it for eight
and when I realized it
it was already late
you were gone
to find a different
better fate.
