To Magic

Dear Magic,

Are you real?

Were you once?

The stories make it seem so.

If so, then where did you go?

Are you not here?

Did you disappear?

Or do you linger still?

Are you in the particles that we breathe?

Are you secretly in everything?

Is it me that is the problem?

Do I not believe enough?

Do I believe at all?

What can you do?

Are the myths true?

Are you an anomaly? 

Do I have you?

Can I use you if I ask nicely?

Can we be friends?

I invite you to come join this little life of mine.

The door is open

If you want to hop in.

I’m curious,

What do you feel like?

Alright. . .

I understand

Maybe someday you can show me?

Fair enough. . .

I’ll try to believe then.
