The Magic Of Me

I don't need a cloak to be invisible

The lights in the window flicker over me 

Just like all my worn memories

My doubt hangs so low around my neck 

Left out for the world to see

And I sit complacent hoping things will change

Wanting things to work for once today

Some where out there I left my dreams behind

Lying in the dirty road 

For someone else to find

Cause someone told me dreaming 

was a waist of time

And we will all laugh at gilded butterflies 

Well you know the demons that brand me theirs?

They make this life hard to bear

I feel their darkness all around me

They bring night terrors when i close my eyes

Keeping me up all night

They keep coming and coming and coming

I would give the world for this to be gone

To get rid of this haunting feeling I don't belong

But no matter how hard I try 

Failure still reins victorious 

I'm still invisible and hopeless

So pointless

This is incredible. It really is. "My doubt hangs so low around my neck " Great line and I think the second stanza was my favorite. All around great write. Imagery went with flow as well....xx
