there’s a reservoir i find deep inside
a pool of mirrors, turned malleable
i swim there
dip my toe
lie on my back
weightless
forgetting the
tick
tock
of time
i visit
but i can’t seem to stay
not yet
anyway
if i dip the slivers of my soul
inside
just for the slightest
of breaths
they grow
the battered
bruised
surface
glowing
shining
with new strength
scar tissue proving
i can do this
and so can you
believe in magic
believe in you
