Finding Your Magic

Creating the perfect disguise

With magic made on the top shelf

fueling fire behind my eyes

when you're lost finding yourself

*

Better save your place in line

you won’t find you in somebody else

It’s funny how true colors shine

in secrecy and it’s darkness

*

Loyalties turn love to hate

Running with madnesses wolf pack

Yellow roses left, mark the grave

For things you know you can’t get back

*

The things believed true love would save

the scarlet flags have all turned to black

Noting the difference in what remains

as she and her ghost learn to dance

*

nothing ever stays the same
