Once Upon a Memory

Once upon on a memory It seems like many moons ago, Our hearts danced, we became entranced The oceans of our love began to flow. A lost and empty heart Wandered aimlessly down a path, Darkness invaded, hope evaded Then there was light. Once upon a memory Night has stolen day many times since, While the sky wept, our love crept Along the winding path. Obstacles to overcome Troubles to tackle Fear to fight A star lit the way. Once upon a memory A day we will cherish forever, Our eternal promise Our vow. Even the doubters, silenced. The pessimists, hushed. The 'realists', flawed. United. Once upon a memory She gave us the perfect cure, A flame which we hold so dear An angel we adore. The past was eclipsed As though erased, A momentary blip Our hearts ablaze. Once upon a memory He made us complete, A gem which shines so bright Our hearts he makes beat. The puzzle was completed As though a game was won, A sign of solidarity Our mission, our goal Done
