I speak words of gold
Write lines of silver
My pen opens up new worlds
Painting so avidly
Knowing the story
My characters are waiting to twirl
Dance at my cue
My puppet on strings
Sway in the breeze
They are mine to control
But life isn't so sweet
My words are just words
My magic is dull
Smoke and mirrors revealed
I am Silence
A burning flame dimmed
