Listen. I may not have hair with magical qualities. But I also was not an innocent prisoner in a tower for the first 18 years of my life. Interesting, how our gifts and opportunities/situations seem to find a balance in this crazy world.

It is her 18th birthday. Her mother and father prepare her lanterns. Not a word is spoken...a tear escapes from her royal father's tired eyes, reflecting sorrow that hides a glimmer of hope. My own tears begin to fall...and continue to pledge allegiance to the tradition of faith....hoping for things that are not seen...THAT is magic. Real magic.

"...For now they saw the Prince. No one doubted for a moment who he was. ...Pale though he was from long imprisonment in the Deep Lands, dressed black, dusty, dishevelled, and weary, there was something in his face and air which no one could mistake. That look is in the face of all true kings of Narnia, who rule by the will of Aslan..." -The Silver Chair
I am a hopeless romantic...no, hopeful. I read these words written on paper, and felt these same etchings on my heart. Royalty is not something voted for, it is divine and deep within. We all have this potential. My future husband will be described by these words....

"You are, a cinema, I could watch you forever. Action, thriller, I could watch you forever. You are, a cinema, a Hollywood treasure. I love you just the way you are, a cinema." -Skrillex remix of Benny Benassi's "Cinema". I will be an academy award winning actress...in love, and in film.

I have been waging a war. It is hard not to fall behind enemy lines, when it is someone you love. Why drop an atomic bomb, when you can just watch my heart ache? I can promise the effects will be far more destructive. I have never felt the urge for violence so strongly, as when love is the motivation. If I smacked you with all the light that is in me, would you start to see? No, I suppose it doesn't work that way. Light...love...those must be OFFERED. They LIVE in someone who is open to believe.
