Purple Dreams In Other Realms

Once upon a magical evening an enchanted fairy I happened to see 
dressed in a fantastical dress with  two dappled wings of lace,     
she shone like the midnight sun; 

I must confess, she looked rather whimsical  
sitting there by a green wooden door, waiting for your lore ! 
 
And with no persuasion but thrill did I start off,
To speak of what ever this fairy desired to hear.
As soon as I was given the audience did I speak of what I held back as though I waited all my life to speak at that moment.

Inspired by her compelling grace and charm  did I begin a tale that I deemed fit to be heard only by a few,
"Once", I began " in a land, lived a man who saw something he couldn't share;
A beauty he couldn't afford to tell about and a power he craved for only himself but he had to let go of his ambition and share with his people for they were lost before now and with what he knew things changed for good both for him and his people, which was a wonderful thing to behold and know off".
I spoke and said this little tale and to my surprise this enchanting fairy loved it through and through,
This is a relief I hoped for and I got a price too, her smile it was.

DEEP RUN

Run it deep, run you words through me,
You make me feel right, I still recognize myself to be the wrong guy cos I'm still in doubt.
The sky is bright in the dark, o my god look at that,
Aren't you the reason for bright days and night that I have?
Making me to relax, feel good and feel alive.

Run those whispers through my ears,
Switch it up, switch up my nerves to every bit of your steps.
Roll the dice, roll it till I fold , you already won before and it was no luck.
Put me in your arms or fall in mine whichever you like as long as you have no doubt.

I breathe you in like I feed on your scent,
Its like the rain a farmer needs before the harvest,
And I want you so deep that I could have gone down to the bottom of the ocean.
An obsession I don't wish to have but an objection I don't seem to have either.
So whether I like or fight it, you still keep the control of me.
