Blanks


In these blank spaces, was once I a dreamer,
Illusion from reality, corrupted was the mirage of my mind.
Heaven on, hell upon my sanity,
A taboo never to be uttered of.
 
 
My pen, my magic wand, 
Abracadabra and the adventure began,
A spill of ink, a sail in the land of papers
Needed not you lift a muscle, magic be your companion
 
 
In these complicated mazes, was once I a queen
At the back of my palm, like a fortune I could tell
Am emperor with power, an immortal to be precise
The world under my feet, I on top of earth; a supergirl in a red cape.
 
 
 
Many places to scribble, door in my empty shell
Secrets never once spoke, once upon a time I wrote.
In the darkness my treasure lies, for the world never to notice
A place more than oblivion, peace once my soul rested.
 
Dark humour nestled, like a baby in a plush,
Disturbed paradise blessed, a curse like a parasite
Out life it sucked, all that needed you know.
 
Penning the last page, another chapter to begin
A story never ending, a cycle of life continues
Wrapped in a hard copy- a shield, in between the nemesis is placed
If the library talks, naked will I be to the eyes of the beholder
