As You Wish

"Magic isn't made to be seen by those who believe, but by those who have yet to see it." It was what she told me. And I believed her. Hindi ako naniniwala sa mahika dahil mula pa nang mawala ang pinaka-mahalagang tao sa buhay ko, wala na'kong nakita kun'di itim at puti. There was no gray, in fact, there was no other color in my world besides black and white. But the moment she entered my life, I saw so much more than the colors that I have seen in my life. She was the magic that I have never seen before. But of course, like all magic tricks, they're just illusions made to deceive you. ©MadameFae
