Fabled

By Phalanx

I am the psychiatrist that talks to himself,
Patient and practitioner.
You know the hearts of men through how they lie.
There's a magic in the foot steps
Calling for reinforcments
So they won't see you.
It's both faith and magic that still exist.
The facts in fiction teach you to believe and our God gave us monsters
So that we could learn how to be men.
