Once Upon a Story

Once upon a story
By Herold Osmond Owoseb

Is it true that it is you? 
Is it true that we never knew?
My mind had forgotten but my heart has revived it
The feelings I have hidden, I now revisit 

Yesterday so clear today
Cute smiles I wish were mine to take
Yesterday it was but still it remains
A love I once felt; so strong again

Words left unsaid; thoughts I could not express
Is it worth containing while love is failing?
Reminiscing on a story, of love for the fairies
Once a friend I had hoped would be more
