Value

A smile in a thought of a "forever" like this. A dream from a star's one wish. A love of a life from a fairy tale one told To a child with an imagination worth a whole pot of gold. Can you really put a value to something like this? Like that feeling you get from your last first kiss? Or the dreams that come true from a shooting star's wish? There's no value worth more than all this. A song from a night from a heart's first glance. A sway from a dress from a love's first dance. A rose from a thorn from a child's freedom. A ring from a night from a tear from one. Can you really put a value to a moment like this? To a second in time so carefree as this? To a heartbeat caused by pure peace and bliss? To a child's eye lit by a shooting star and a wish? Could you tell me what it's worth? Or could you tell me which came first? Was it hope for a future unknown, Or happiness from the love that's shown? Was it a dream from a fairy tale, Or optimism after every fail? Because the child that I've never seen Is one without a single dream. So tell me, Can you really put a value to this? To a first kiss? A child's wish? Pure bliss? To this? To this moment looking into your eyes? To a fairy tale defined By you and I.
