Someone once told me
Someone once told me

There are no such things as fairytales

Just words on paper brought to life in dreams

Fairytales are not just words on a page

For they start long before the first ink is spilled

Before the quill is dipped

When the parchment lay blank

Fairytales are not fireflies growing voices

But rather the soft flutter of leaves

Dancing to and fro in the breeze

Fairytales don"t start in the clouds

They quietly push themselves out of the ground

As they reach for the sun

Fairytales aren"t absorbed from the outside

Coming to life as they work their way in

They start on the inside

Exploding out like fireworks

In a dark summer sky

Painting multicolored pictures on one"s eye

Fairytales are more than dreams

They are the reality of reaching our goals

They are not running from

They are running to

Shaking off the darkness that pursues us

The chains that would bind us to one place

If fairytales weren"t real

Then clouds would just be clouds

All the flowers would smell the same

The birds wouldn"t be able to sing

If fairytales weren"t real

Everything would be just black and white

But everything isn"t just black and white

Someone once told me

There are no such things as fairytales

But someone blew me a kiss

I saw it grow butterfly wings

Dance across the meadow

To land on my cheek

Now every night the dragons dance

Around the moon

Chasing their tails like shooting stars

And the fireflies spell out your name

As they skip across a field of wildflowers

So make your wish

Dream your dreams

Don"t ever give up hope

But most of all

BELIEVE

Believe in fairytales"..
