As a kid I was taught one thing

Legends do not exist



But some days
I'm still dreaming a world of happy ever after

While feeding into my mind
The power of disasters


I still believed

Head in clouds and I could breathe again
Let go of fears and I could tread on air
To feel lighter than ever before
To outgrow the scars covering what's within
Like burnt up embers smothering the fire that is our skin
And I've tried so hard
Why is the world around me still so dark?

Almost did I lose myself to the hands of Strangers
But I remember back then who you were




You didn't mean to make my world light up

And I can see now that you left it far behind us




But I cannot get used to this
The feeling of uncertainty
It pushes me
To want to know more
And the more I know the less I believe





So maybe legends they do not exist



But I see you, kid
