This poem is about many things. I found it hard to give it a good title.

I actually support GuyxPriscilla, but I suppose HeathxPriscilla is a lot easier to write, in terms of the mood it gives you. Hope you like this poem.


Flight of Fantasy

Not long ago

We walked side by side, in descending starlight

Over the grass, bright in the moon

Your voice giving me calm and joy

Lilting as you spoke with a smile

-

Not long ago

You were fearless, caring not for authorities—

You said that when the chains of law had fallen away,

You had felt freer than you ever had

You said, "It doesn't matter what others think."

Love came before everything

-

Not long ago

You finally held me close, speaking of love

You stayed by me like a gentle guardian in battle

Took my hand when the night veiled us all

And we danced beneath the sky, without music

Guided by true love itself

-

I returned it in every way I could

We flew through the silver night on battle-worn wings

Escaping, for moments, from the roads

From the dust of war and rules and anger

We soared away, building a perfect world for ourselves

In the sky, a world which lasted us a few minutes

A few stunning, breathtaking minutes

That seemed endless.

-

But now you shrink from me

Step farther as I come close

Your eyes are submission, resignation

All your freedom vanished, as our time ends

-

Where has your love for flying gone?

You no longer long for freedom

The rules have reclaimed you once more.

And though I hate to admit that it is true,

-

We're divided by more than just a row of mountains

Nation, race, status—

A gap too wide to cross,

A gap even flight can never overcome.

-

To where have those times vanished?

They were so sweet,

And yet I know it is time to forget

You know that there is no way out

I must accept that too.

All those times were a waste, nothing but a waste.

-

Not long ago…

Not long ago, we were lovers.

But now,

We can only be acquaintances

Two people whose paths once crossed

And parted

Never to happen again

-

All those days and nights together

All those memories, those fearless flights

Our perfect world, our fantastical joy—

They are nothing, and will remain nothing,

For your good, and for mine,

For ever and ever.

-

But in my dreams, we will always soar together,

Inseparable, on the wings of strength

In a world where there are no chains to bind us—

A perfect fantasy world that we once built, long ago,

As we were flying away into the midnight.
