Feedback: tell me you love me J
Disclaimer: I don't own 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' only my poem
Green and glowing energy
I open portals, I am the key
A normal kid, a normal teen
They fed me lies, they hadn't seen
I slipped away, to the Magic Box
Spike came with, he picked the locks
I found the book, that Giles keeps
The store was dark, it gave me the creeps
We read aloud, by candlelight
Handwriting like a fruit fly, what a sight
Then all at once, read from the book
I heard the truth and couldn't look
Home in the kitchen, I wanted to scream
In the living room, the Scooby team
Did they all know, or was it just me
That didn't know that I was the Key
I took the knife with the sharpest blade
I cut myself, for blood I prayed
I stood alone, resisting pain
I was in denial, I looked for blame
Buffy saw and mom had freaked
They took the knife, its blade blood-streaked
I went to my room, I cried for a while
I burned my diaries, I wasn't a real child
Made by monks, sought by Glory
My existence is one weird story
I've come to terms, I understand
What Glory wants and has planned
Green and glowing energy
I open portals, I am the key
