magic

a life full of mystery
sometimes magic, often wonder
a magician's sleight of hand
magic spells that pull us under

you think it's figured out
thought it through in advance
as you dig inside your heart
to give it one more chance

no success at tuning it out, thoughts
won't listen to commands
I try hard to control my mind
but my heart gets out of hand

my heart like a tightened fist
holding fast to what its feels
and what I need from you
is magic so it can heal
