Once we were fairies

Once we were fairies;

children of pleasure,

immortal butterflies

racing the wind...

Our hearts were fearless flames

burning passion so pure

it blinded us

of our nakedness;

our awkwardness,

our pride...

We played in the moonlight;

winking at each other's

enchanted minds

and electric bodies.

We teased the sunshine

with our smiles,

our kisses and embraces...

Then somewhere along the way,

we must have stumbled upon

the bones of our slain

mortal selves.

Heaped up there we found

all our fears,

every betrayal,

and the mangled teachings

of society...

Now we pretend we are fairies,

hiding in shadows,

behind words and gestures...

How I miss the freedom

of the wind;

the excitement of emotion,

the secrets of new love,

the wonderland of you and me.
