muted tones
was a time
perhaps in another life
I felt magic in my soul
saw it in trees & sky
where rhythms & tides
were bigger than my own
or maybe carried me
I couldn't tell anymore
seems so long ago
when I knew another me
another hope
different belief
feels like I've been marooned
this barren scrap of landscape is all I see
muffled & monotone
no light
no dark
and no shadows
what's left to me now
is a need for connection
how to capture magic
well...no...I can't
I must open myself to the unknown
the universe within
find that spark in my heart
and follow it to its source
allowing magic to emerge
and converge
in an outwardly direction
I may never again be who I was in the past
nothing living is permanent
but how I grow...
that's up to me
my chosen path

That road looks more like a spirograph than a lane, I swear! Thank you so very much, Adelphina! 😊
