Day 3-Pick one line song lyric to serve as an epigraph to our poem. Then write the poem to accompany it.
"Nothing but a vision trick under the warning light"
I grew up believing in the importance of imagination
Weaving magic into thoughts and feelings
Euphoria was a spell
Tears; salty drops of elixir
Soon everything started to blur
Lines faded; disappeared
I could no longer distinguish nuances
between love and fear
Emotions mixed in a disastrous concoction
I brewed a potion
of calamity
You were the next tragedy
I couldn't read you if I tried
You were written in words I couldn't decipher
Then it dawned upon me
You had been my latest flight of fancy
I could spend eternity studying you
Examining evidence, layer by layer
All whilst ignoring those whispers telling me
You don't exist- you were never here.
