Scrying on Friends

Posted by ElshaHawk on February 7, 2021

Through the enchanted flower

I watched my friends’ lives from afar

Twas safer for me to be alone, though

To not have them near left a big scar

Watching them fail or succeed at life

brought many tears to my eyes

Only the tiny fairies saw

the depth of my love and heard my sighs
