Intro - the 'Real' Sonnet

Ghosts outside your door Open slowly for emphasis Fade out- end of trailer Cling tighter to him Passionate kiss Happy love montage Fade out- end of trailer Alien watches from above Hero comes from earth to stop 'em finally arrives and gasps Fade out- end of trailer So what really is reality? Ask Plato not me, Is it worth searching finally? Movie type stories aren't free. The price is true understanding No bodies wishing for a plain life So we lie to get this understanding Look around nobody is flying kites Listen to the piano riff drive though The power of the moment is pure The credits push back the real you But, by then the sonnet is unsure For time heals all of one's wounds Except the ones keep in your swoon
