Faerie Tale Silhouette

I wanted to write a semi-dark, faerie tale lullaby. So, here it is.

 Walking alone by the moonlight

Glide down the silvery sand

The sky moving fast

To the beat of tomorrow

A slipper in his steady white hand

 

Runs like a wolf in the moonlight

The sound of silence is wise

He looks for the lady

Who danced in his reign

And took him with lily white eyes

 

Skin soft by the moonlight

She sits in the forest alone

She sobs, without tears,

Of a sickly surrender

Sitting on her named stone

 

Stars sing a song in the moonlight

He opens the gates to the yard

He kneels down beside her

She looks at his favor

Her smile seems distant and hard

 

Haste! For it's almost the midnight

The slipper burning like sun

Just for tonight

She is his Cinderella

The living and dead become one

 

Stories of beanstalks and witches

Gingerbread houses and men

Capes and cauldrons

Demons and angels

Will all be here once again

 

Tomorrow, tomorrow

When you wake from your dreams

Tomorrow, tomorrow

When you wake from your dreams, love

Tomorrow, tomorrow

When you wake from your dreams

Tomorrow, tomorrow

When you wake from your dreams , love
