like characters that live and die
touching stars and scraping moons
disgracing lies
unending eyes
they're gone too soon.
Rainbows float amidst the dust
purple satin lined with rust
banana pie and ocean blue
A fading green
explores the scene
unearthly hues.
The song that plays is heard by none
yet known by almost everyone.
The dance comes easy with the tune
and off the floor
they twirl some more
cascading dunes.
The one who strays is unaware
a different song is playing there
but longs to spin and flow and sway
down on the floor
as long before
the legends say.
A falling star
a faded dream
deserted dance
and frozen steam
A memory
of long ago
before the mortals
came to know
A silent wish
that took away
the magic of
the ever-day
And she.
She let it go.
She didn't know.
She let it go.
