Protect your Magic

Oh, look at the time!

You’ve been dreaming for sure

Waiting on a force sublime

To cast you ashore;

A listless mind

An exuberant face;

Willing to find

Failing to chase;

Mirroring your kind

And stuck in a maze;

Seeking treasures outside the self,

Picking muddled brains and digging a delf;

Thoughts misleading and thoughts intrusive,

Distracting and making the spirit elusive;

A battle of wits?

Or a battle of twits?

Lost lambs in a convoluted tale,

Hope elusive, yet eager to regale,

Soul hapless, about to derail;

So feel feelings don’t judge them,

Don’t think over thoughts, rise above them,

Stop looking without,

Start looking within,

Power through your storms of doubt,

Breathe to let your healing begin;

One moment of clarity is all it takes-

So seize the motion,

Ride it out to the ocean;

Don’t skim the surface, just take a plunge,

Verklempt and overwhelmed, attempting to expunge;

Take heart, sailor, for it's you who holds the key,

To maneuver your soul to the ends of the sea;

Be resilient in the face of failure and defeat,

Master your boat and captain your fleet;

YOU are the treasure that you have been seekin’,

Once ignited, you’re a fire beacon;

Believe and witness your power unleash,

An original work of art, not a pastiche;

Are you yet dreaming? Is there a shift in your focus?

Are you now ready to become your magnum opus?

So give fear not the pleasure of a stifled spirit’s tale so tragic,

Unearth the miracle receptacle residing on the seabed of your thoughts pelagic;

Now, trust your magic,

Then, project your magic,

Darlin’ fiercely protect your magic
