Candles
Pennies
Eyelashes
Wishbones
Shooting stars
Dandelion puffs
I wish whenever I can
hoping one day they might come true.
The magic doesn’t end when you
are no longer a child.
Small rituals to manifest
the life I want.
Telling my desires
to everyday things.
Enchanted dreams
seemingly out of reach.
Charms and spells
yearning for the unattainable.
Plans and goals
needing a little extra help.
Mystical thoughts
brought into a secular world.
The Goddesses
listening to my wants.
Feeling despair
and defeat in everyday life.
Visualizing more
to give my life purpose.
I keep believing.
I keep hoping.
I keep wishing.

My To Be Read List
I have been taking some time away from writing. I haven't forgotten about Vocal, the truth is I just have been too busy pursuing other things to write online and honestly, my little family and I just had a really hard month between the flu and a weird eye infection/cold circulating our house. I'm currently sipping some warm peppermint tea because my throat is sore.
