What Kind Of Magic Spell Is This?

By Jareth Lokison

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

What kind of magic spell is this? * spiders, snails, puppy dog tails? * ~ Thunder or Lightning? ~ Did it happen when we talked? Did you cast it as we walked? It dosen't really matter when I fell, by you I was ensorcelled. I've tried to break it many ways, trying hard for nights and days. It makes no difference at all, with you I am still enthralled. What kind of magic spell is this? * spiders, snails, puppy dog tails? * ~ Thunder or Lightning? ~ Candles flaming searing bright, incense burning through the night. Magic circles of protection, Ancient texts couldn't break connection. Chapels gothic with long walls, Hymns of purity filled the halls. Seeking solutions in Scriptures read, confusing answers from prayers said. What kind of magic spell is this? * spiders, snails, puppy dog tails? * ~ Thunder or Lightning? ~ Hiding myself in relationships, did nothing but destroy friendships. Could turn to chemicals I guess, but that would only make a worse mess. Trying to deny my thoughts for you, only tore myself in two. Am I giving up, giving in, does this just lead to a pit of sin? What kind of magic spell is this? * spiders, snails, puppy dog tails? * ~ Thunder or Lightning? ~ I can't hold back these feelings for long, and ask myself if they are really wrong. Perhaps its no spell evaded, but by True Love I'm persuaded? My love for you seems to grow by the hour, For you I would do anything within my power. From these feelings I can not flee. You have all power over meI can't take credit for: * spiders, snails, puppy dog tails? * ~ Thunder or Lightning? ~ That's taken from the movie Labyrinth and a song by David Bowie. Some other lines are deliberate missquotes from the same movie. Written April 16th, 2002 © on Apr 16 2002 04:53 AM PST   18 • 0 • 8
