A fictional write of a loveless plight…
Once Upon a Dream
"When you're wishing upon a twinkling star Gracious fairies gather from realms afar Sent to mend hearts what’re broken in two Bringing love of your loved one home to you.”
Once upon a dream a long time ago You came into my life and charmed it so Gently kissing my lips, you kissed my heart Beneath glowing beams of heavenly stars. Above the rainbow pretty bluebirds flew In a fantasyland made just for two A magnetic rapture of sky above Perfectly enhancing the mood for love. Beauty of each moment, minute and hour Unfurled alike an exquisite flower Till time came and spelt close of our romance Breaking the spell that made our lives enhanced. Bittersweet are finely tuned joys and grief A song in my heart on constant repeat Rhapsody that brings back both dear and sad And movie star magic dreams we once had. If only we could time travel aback Capitulated to mystic comeback Reliving memories, heaven blessed Of golden years that were simply the best. It's lonesome without you, to proceed on Days are long from dawn to setting of sun Yet no one out there my heart would embrace Not in the universe of outer space. I view moon and stars through mist of my tears Wishing us back to future's tranquil sphere Joyous together in true love light gleam Our hearts entwined, as once upon a dream.

Sad yet romantic. Many can relate to this. Enjoyed reading as I just cannot write romantic poems.
