Peter Pan

When I was little

Everyone liked princesses

But me

I liked Tinker Bell

She could fly

She was magic

She was amazing

And so was her companion

One night

I was feeling low

Lost

And alone

When they came to visit me

They made me smile

And laugh

They made me happy

But then

A few years later

The world

Turned dark

No one laughed

No one smiled

Everyone was sad

Everyone was gone

And there stood

Peter and Tink

Playing  together

I asked them;

"Why are you smiling

When no one else is?"

He answered;

"The world is ours for the taking

No need for THEM to be happy

Besides

There's nothing I can do anymore"

"What do you mean?"

I ask

"No one knows who I am anymore

They have all forgotten me

Forgotten us"

He replied

Sadly

I was shocked

"Oh, but Peter,

Don't you know who you are?

You're a symbol of kindness and hope

No one has forgotten you

We are all just waiting

Waiting for you to come back"

He stood and smiled

"maybe you're right"

He says to me

He grabbed my hand

And we flew away

To make everyone smile

To make everyone happy
