My Witchcraft

Your mind still holds 
the spells that get cast
on all of us, and thus
it cannot handle,
fathom 
a witch like me.

Your love for magic
in books and stories
is really the dependency 
you have on its mystery
staying a mystery.

Magic is my essence,
I play with it. I create it. 
Its mystery died for me
at the time of my birth. 
And I keep it killed
by writing and rewriting 
all the spells on and by me.

But don't lose hope, 
you, with your heart
can lovingly strangle 
the spells
holding on to you
and yourself become
a wizard of your own might.

And those who do that, 
will dance with me, 
honing our wizardry 
witchcraft together
making magic and 
even more mystery.
