In Once Upon,
the night can never blind the mortal's eyes
The dragon's breath will be a guide
by lighting up the skies.
The willow trees are such grand places
underneath which lovers kiss
And every wish written in the sands
not a shooting star will miss.
In Once Upon,
the streets of gold lead to all of those you love
the pain long gone, wisped away by winds
and the breeze dances of the dove.
No martyrs here, not a single tear
Just the joy of reverie
And the eyes of the soul with such purity of sight
Have no mysts through which to see.

To our demise, our mortal eyes
are skewered by earth's polluted ways
The lifemap posted to our heads
Directs to places to shroud our gaze.
But look with your soul through the misery
To the possibility above the beyond.
To a place more beautiful, you see
Yes, you see...
In Once Upon

Lose one friend... Lose all friends... Lose Yourself...

That was beautiful.  I don't think there is anything else to say.  That was beautiful.

Bloody hell, Purity, this was amazing. Once upon a time. Nice work, creative.

Hollow.

Oh weaver of words!
But can I get there from here?
Beautiful, Carrigan. Thank you!
