Miracles were fantasies of
The Faithfull’s mind.
They were created acts
Made to make the world
Just a little more
Bearable than it used to be.
Everyone knew it, but
Chose not to accept it.
Until that child with
The silvery-blonde hair
And freckles came.
That child made miracles
Happen, yet no one believed
Since it was only a child.
Those unbelievers changed the child.
The child is now an adult
And is as bitter and fake
As the adults who once unknowingly
Chose its fate.
