I drink the Elixir and wish a wish.
It brings me my escape,
The thing I’ve longed for all my life.
But wait,
What’s this?
The magic I so craved for,
The peace that I wished for,
Brings in a silence that is deafening.
Is this what I asked for?
For the memories to flood me,
For the emotions to overwhelm me?
What do I do with this chaos?
This feeling that all is lost?
So I pick up the pen and write to myself,
A letter that ebbs the flow,
A letter about the wounds, the pain, the sadness, the isolation.
And bit by bit,
The wish was the wish I wished for…
