'Magic' by Lila Cutter

There are times when the
black cloak of that
one thought
parts,
revealing a child who is just old enough
to know that everything she once believed
is now uncertain.
In the teetering darkness she wonders,
'What about magic? Where has it gone?'
And when faced with that
looming mountain she knows is
hers to climb there is always an
'I can't do it'
blocking the path.
Yet there are times when her feet
keep moving forward.
You can do it.

And that's magic little one.
That's it.
