Once upon a time

My world was hand-made

Laying between four walls

Sky resting on maternal eyes

Earth set on father’s shoulders

Head between the stars

Feet steady among the clouds

…

Once upon a time

I was small, too young

A follower, mere learner

Unafraid of heights

Seer of dreams

While weaving illusions

…

Once upon a time

I grew up, changed slowly

Growing into something else

Outgrew my clothing

House, my safety

Tried shoes no longer large

…

Once upon a time

I jumped away, faced freedom

Climbed down from the clouds

Played in the harsh Earth

Not a learner but a teacher

Not a follower, now a guide.

…

Once upon a time

I was no more, child gone

Now a human walking

Where no being can lead

Looking towards the sky

Touching dreams

Naive hopes.

…

Once upon a time

I was me, grown flower

Walking beneath the sun

With no guide

Just my self

With no home

Just my shell

…

Goodbye, dear mother

Farewell, gentle father

My heaven grew too faint

Too small, now too far.

…

Once upon a time

I was myself, nothing else

And another story began.
