In the current world,
I live with a disguise,
Everyday finding a new place to hide,
A new place to reside,
My heart is a bookshelf,
My mind a fictitious prisoner,
Sometimes I am a witch or a wizard,
Sometimes an avenger,
To escape reality,
I find refuge in katanas,
While protecting my kin,
Protecting all ohanas,
I want to meet the dead,
Unleash all my power,
Sing fabulously,
Or dance in flowers,
I want to see the future or have a fate,
I want to live in outer space or in a world I create,
An archer, a hunter, a queen nonetheless,
My malady is not them being real,
My malady is not being them.
