once upon a time
way back when
we owned this town
through the eyes of children

we were unstoppable
nothing could ever harm us
(even when we were harmed so badly)
we were the wind and the waves

but..
things change

the echoes of our kingdom
once tall and mighty
now crumble under the weight
of a mere thought in their direction

we were once the winds and the waves
but the distance cracked our invincibility
we have been worn and broken
to little more than dew drops and wind chimes

our land isn't ours anymore
and i'm just now learning
it's time for me to move on
