the Boy

He ran away
away he flew
to a special place
where nobody knew

He banished the sad thoughts
and cherished the good
tick tock, the clocks
and did what he should

He befriended a fairy
and flew all around
this forever young boy
never wore a frown

He would fly to the mainland
to seek out a girl
he offered his hand
and flew her to his world

His one time love
only her soul, he could meet
and in each life she returned
his heart raced faster, beat by beat

When the clock struck time
and his love had to go
he would fly her back
only to know

"Someday I will find her,
once more, once more,
each new lifetime,
opens the door.
For that is my curse,
forever I'll be,
Waiting for my love,
while I live forever as a boy of 16."

She would leave his side
and tell stories of the untold
but to her children
that were not His to hold

She would die and be born
only to be found again
fall in love with him
and leave again

Now I am back
I await for you, love
Sweep me away
You are my flying white dove

Your heart sparkles with magick
with a warmth so true
And even if the end be tragic
I shall forever and always love you.
