Once Upon A Time

Once upon a time, 

I knew a girl, bright as diamonds.

Once upon a time,

I knew a smile shining like a star.

Once upon a time,

I knew a heart as big as mine.

Once upon a time…

I loved a girl more precious than diamonds,

Once upon a time,

I held a star in my arms.

Once upon a time,

My heart was held in her hands.

Once upon a time,

My world was her smile.

Once upon a time,

I knew what happiness really was.

Once upon a time,

She stole my heart with a smile.

Once upon a time…

My days began with her on my mind.

Once upon a time…

Those days came to a sudden end.

Leaving me with nothing but my regret.

Once upon a time…

I looked upon a star.

Blinded by her light.

Once upon a time,

I held her close to me,

Once upon a time,

I let her go so foolishly,

Once upon a time,

I wished her to always shine.

Once upon a time,

I look upon the sky,

Dreaming of a chance to know once more,

If the star that I let go, was shining brightly still.

Once upon a time.
