All of Me

I was born to become a magician,
I'm half-blind yet incredibly smart.
I am guided by my intuition,
I'm a goddess of wisdom at heart.

I'm no longer a slave of devotion,
I'm no longer a poet of spring.
I have managed to tame my emotion,
I'm a charming yet dangerous thing.

If you happen to see my reflection
In the lakes of the far-away North,
They just bury my latter perfection,
As I'm healing and going forth.

I discovered a new destination
At the moment I stepped off the edge.
My next novel's my own creation,
It is time to turn over the page.
