It Thrills Me It Scares Me
I love it, I hate it. It scares me, it thrills me.
It is magical, mystical, ethereal, and yet….
There is a part of it that is so beyond my grasp

I want to be part of it, I want to be included, I want to be like them.
But do I have it in me? I walk right up to the edge and try to face a demon.
