Prologue

Circus Vertigo

Circus Vertigo - Prologue

 

you can (not) be happy here.

 

 

 

If I told you once

I told you a thousand times my dear

Never to fall in love with a man 

Who can tell you everything

with his eyes.

 

But Lu Han that night

watched Jongin with

empty, broken

eyes,

full of sadness.

If you had looked close

you could have seen the fear

in those eyes.

 

Circus Vertigo's prodigy

did one of his best performance 

that night, but Jongin

still could see the 

request for help

in his eyes.

 

If I told you once I told you twice

To never trust a soulless voice

Lips turning black like the shade of your eyes

be careful, they might tell you lies.

 

Circus is fun

Circus is intriguing

Cricus is magic,

 "Circus is beautiful"

but Lu Han's eyes were telling otherwise.

 

"I would like to join a Circus crew. 

It would be awesome"

Jongin said while watching a girl

dancing with some dogs.

"are you serious?"

said a man

with a long beard

and heavy breath 

that smelled of

metal.

 

Was he serious?

 

we're hiring, if you're interested, just come here

 

If I told you thrice

I told you three thousand times my dear

Never to fall in love with a man 

Who'd draw you into his lair

 

Jongin didn't answer.

 

He got home.

Exhausted,

he went to bed

and

he dreamed of

Clowns

Dancers

Acrobats

Hoopers

and

 

Lu Han.

 

 

A/N: okay sorry sorry sorry I know this .  

If something with the grammar is wrong please forgive me (and tell me so I can correct)

I know this is too short and all, I hope you at least appreciate my hardwork.

I used some of the lines of Circus Contraption's song 'If I told you once', hope you don't mind

the whole story will be based on the band's songs, so you'll find pieces of various lyrics in the text.

Chapter 3: Actually these chapters are poetic. I love te words, the imaginations inside, the freaks, and the sheer desperation.
