thank you for the spell you cast
no longer rationalised
thank you for the broken charms
my senses paralysed

thank you for the woven dreams
worn to my design
thank you for the images
distorted to be mine

thank you for the moonshine
that built my universe
thank you for the whispered hope
when insight knew far worse

thank you for reflections
mirrored like a shield
thank you for eclipsing love
with shadows that you wield

thank you for the leap of faith
and for the sun and moon
thank you for delusion
and dancing to your tune

thank you for the taste of love
and strength to walk away
by keeping safe your guarded heart
will you thank me one day?
