• Once Upon a Time


    Once upon a time there was a boy.
    Once upon a time there was a girl.
    He looked at her and it brought her joy.
    She looked in his eyes and knew he was her world.

    She admired her beloved from afar.
    She didn't know what to say.
    She tried to keep her feelings in a jar.
    But her love would not go away.

    The wind ran its fingers through his hair.
    She longed to do the same.
    She needed him like she needed air.
    Her heart always whispered his name.

    The girl's heart skipped a beat when she saw his face.
    She didn't understand this feeling.
    It was hard for her to maintain her space.
    The girl wanted to soar through the ceiling.

    He'd cast a magic spell on her.
    She didn't want it to go away.
    Enchanted is what she wanted to be.
    She didn't want it to fade into yesterday.

    She wanted to tell him how she felt.
    But she didn't know what to do.
    Doubt wrapped around her like a pelt.
    She didn't tell him so he had no clue.

    Once upon a time they had to part.
    There was no make believe or pretend.
    She realized that for them there wasn't a start.
    Yet the fairytale came to an end.
