A fractured fairytale of abundant broken beauty
There lies a tale of whimsical dance to childhood duty
A safe homage from the hated exterior
Escapes all the dread that makes her inferior
Her pixie pirouettes take upon the stage premiere Titled: Home
The heavy load she carried wherever she would roam.
The love she left; an abode birthed and theft
A break from sorrow blessed in the warmth she possessed
Is apprehensive to the lone man that she once caressed
The moss upon the grave has grown over time;
Its natural fragments dare show our crime
Nature is now where our memories lie
Oh! What we do only to survive.
A lost soul-bearing a heart bred with grief
Taken in the night by that devilish thief
It is time for the warrior to release her gun
This pretty ballerina has had her fun
The wanderer does return!
Praying to conquer that fires wicked burn!
The fear bouts the doubt; there is truth to figure out.
Identity forged within the fragments of a photo
Figments of our fathers' heritage do-follow
A place in the world where one did just fit
The scene where a young girls fairytale quit.
Yet, The gardenias do blossom just as memory forms
The sun rays bursting through those darkened thunderstorms
What timeless wonders of nature grow through the mind!
I put my faith in her to protect the family twined.
Fair, sweet nostalgia turn back those wicked currents of time!
Fend off the sorrow built within these enzymes!
For who would not wish to be a child once more?
Though, childhood never really escaped us at all
Innocent to the face of that darkness was theft
Unprepared for what life could possibly plan next
Though, youth escaped the family tree
I'm so glad you came back home to regrow it with me.
Where the magpies' colourful sweet tune does sing
Harmonizing with the kookaburras battle to be king;
What heartwarming melody to lift up our spirits!
Mother natures gifts will guide us to our happy merits
That fractured fairytale that once was
Now held in the healing hands of a childhood reformed.
