Here and Gone

Does it come out from within
Or does the core absorb
A spiked sphere
Or a glowing orb

What makes it magic
A secret you’re in on
Is there value there
If it’s not wished upon

You look straight at it
The thing disappears
The night’s navy blanket
Is soaking with tears

After many tomorrows
I’ll be gone to my reward
The sky’s cloak of shimmers
Diamonds no one can afford
