A Fairytale


I waited,paused
little by little
darkness surrounds
alone in the forest
I walk

"what are you waiting for?
the sun is setting"
hark(listen)
I waited, paused
no one around me

Nothing happened

the birds sang no more
the sky was blue no more
darkness everywhere
I waited, paused

"what are you waiting for?
the sun has set"

the voice again
hark
I waited, paused
no one around me

no stars in the sky
no moon singing tonight
no hope in the air
i have lost my way

alone,cold,sweating with fear
i waited, paused
alone in the forest
i hark

"what are you waiting for?"

the question again
no reply, i gave.
my fear made
shapes in the dark

my eyes betray me
fireflies from nowhere
light up the sky
yellow light everywhere

the question again
"what are you waiting for?"

i hark
the hoofs
a uniconin yellow
the fireflies danced
a god for the lost

stood by the oak
and smiled at me
she spoke, thee
"what are you waiting for?"

"the yellow sun
i answered"

"lost are you?how long?"
she asked
the unicon
oh!what beauty!she is

"yes,for long"
my fear ebbed away
the fireflies
danced around me

"sleep for now
the yellow shall rise
waste your fear
for am here"

and she smiled

i sat under the oak
the soft grass under me
the pixies sang for me
her hoofs played drum

i slept for long
no dew sat on me
i slept for long
the cool breeze

sunrise has come
the yellow smiled at me
but the unicorn was gone
the firelies
the pixie were gone

i asked the oak
to say my thanks
the oak danced in reply
"yes,i shall"with the wind
i walked back home.
safe and sound.
