Magic

I don't need stories of battles
Between knights and dragons
In the days of old.
I don't have dreams
Of everything I touch turning to gold.
I don't need to walk on water
Or turn water into wine.
I have enough magic in my life
Because you're mine.

And all they heard was,
white noise.
In the midst of their own self destruction.
Nobody can hear us. Because no one is listening.

If you keep shooting a man in the leg,
he'll eventually beg for the heart.

Living a life
When the voices in your head are a little louder than your own
No one knows
The things you have tell yourself everyday

Staying strong
Because you are expected to
"Don't be a disappointment"
Because it makes people upset

"Fake it till you make it, it works."
She told me
And all I felt was sadness
Because it dawned on me

That everyone lives in fear
Of being the 'let-down'
And we all stopped caring
For ourselves

Because 'we'
Are used
To always
Satisfy
Another
That's why I want to be different.
I want to say,
"**** it."

Poetry is a journey…
each word life’s misstep

When placing them together,
one voice binds and sets

Its map inside a puzzle,
to point beyond the wind

A road that’s never ending
—all travelers within

Rewired and poetic,
words light up the night

Casting darkness back to hell
—demon out of sight
