A Witch Once Human
If you call me a witch,
Then you better not be afraid of the potions,
Turning human to inhuman,
Turning the shadows in your bedroom into the discernible shapes of the ones you love.
If you choose to call me witch,
Then you should be prepared to tangle
With the edges of the Shadow world,
Leaking forth into the comfortable realm of your ego.
If you call me a witch,
Then be prepared to find that it was you,
That turned human to inhuman.
Witch.
Then you better not be afraid of the potions,
Turning human to inhuman,
Turning the shadows in your bedroom into the discernible shapes of the ones you love.
If you choose to call me witch,
Then you should be prepared to tangle
With the edges of the Shadow world,
Leaking forth into the comfortable realm of your ego.
If you call me a witch,
Then be prepared to find that it was you,
That turned human to inhuman.
Witch.

Yowsa! LOL! It's true that which you label and believe can also form.
Why on earth to people associate the term 'witch' with negativity? I did a huge blg series on witches last year, which meant interviewing three of them. Each had their own unique gifts from apothecary to quantum healer.
Only when that knowledge is used to bend the will of another should it be considered dark. Elsewise it's typically healing.
