When Innocence Is Lost In Dreams
When I was yet a small girl
With innocence and locks all curled
I set out on an adventure
Down to a land with no measure
There, as I wandered, lonely
I begot of a state so dreamy
Gazing down in a swamp
My eyes lit up like a lamp
For the water turned
And my reality churned
In the waters, I saw fairies
Dancing to the tunes of great melodies
Happy and carefree
They were all so sugary
Watching them, I became full of envy
And wanted to give them company
So I cried out and put on a pout
But upon hearing my shout
They faded in the depths
And I died, yearning for my breath!
Life lived
But I breathed
Like a corpse, in search of the mystical
In search of this world, so real!
