I Thought

December 1, 2017

I thought I had everything, but I took it for granted.

A princess to the throne, a world filled with magic.

I thought I was high in a world victimless of lies.

In truth I was blind to the darkness taking form as light.

I thought I had everything, but I took it for granted.

A world filled with beauty, built secretly by dark magic.

I thought I was queen, to a world evil had never seen.

As high as a kite, soaring above a beautiful sight.

I thought I was fine, but all I did was cry.

Darkness and terrors lurked in thin sight.

I thought I could handle it, but in truth I unraveled it.

The panic and anxiety, took over what now is a tragedy.

I thought God had foreseen the goodness in me.

I was given a role, a special tune that broke my soul.

I thought I was right, but instead, the world cried.

And now as God looks down, He only frowns.

I thought I had everything, but I lost it in madness.

In the end there is nothing, a world drowning in sadness.
