Non-Fiction

Some “once upon a time” is not where our myth belongs
Through the faded lines of words and rhyme is a hidden song
Though fractured deeply, worn by sorrows from time and time again
Take my hand and enter our… “pretend.”

By star-lit skies
Endlessly writing
Inviting those along
Lost souls who hear our song when gone astray

Though strife's part of life
Stay unafraid, now
When forces say “behave”
We say instead,
“Be brave.”

In a desperate shout, our souls reach out
With pen toward every page
We ignite, come alive
Like a starry night
With a fire no doubts can take away
Got no fairy tale
Where “love prevails”
Though painful, now we move endlessly on
By the light- your spark
Head first, into the dark

Some “once upon a time” is not where a voice gets heard
Will the faded lines of speeding time make us flightless birds?
When pen is running dry, a soul on fire
Is driven to react
And when burning flames attack
We will never fade to black

Though fake, it seems
Not a dream
Or a trick of light

Always vacancy,
Take a seat
It's our story's time

A world is brought to life, through voices five
And as “real” as they say
Pen as sword, we're choosing fate
We can never lose our way

By star-lit skies
Endlessly writing
Inviting those along
Lost souls who hear our song when gone astray

Though strife's part of life
Stay unafraid, now
When forces say “behave”
We say instead,
“Be brave.”

Defiant ‘til the end, I'll stay killing
To sing

I'll dance in burning embers unyielding
Your love's given me wings

While learning to remember the good times
We bring

Our ocean's finally full of life

Set every vital piece in motion
Now we write

In a desperate shout, our souls reach out
With pen toward every page
We ignite, come alive
Like a starry night
With a fire no doubts can take away
Write a fairy tale
Where “love prevails”
Cliched, maybe, we move joyfully on
By the light- your spark

Hopeless days are just a part of being free
We wrote it all by heart.

And smile, side by side among the stars…
