No Magic

Folder:

In the beginning...

you felt like some kind of magic

 

You felt like the first gasp of air

after breaking the surface of the water

 

You felt like being snuggled up

under a toasty warm blanket on a stormy day

 

You felt like that piece of music

where it comes together, just right, and gives me chills

 

You felt like that road with the dip in it

where for a second the bottom drops out and I'm floating

 

You felt like a morning of sleeping in

And waking up to sunshine and birds chirping

 

But now... it feels like the end..

The end of the magic...

 

No more long draws of air

 

The blanket has grown cold

 

The music has stopped playing

 

I'm taking a different road

 

No time to sleep in...

when all I can wonder is why I didn't feel like magic to you, too.
