Once upon a time

Once upon a time,
I believed in heaven,
A magical kingdom,
Where you were safe and sound,
A place you were never cold or forgotten,
Where the golden gates awaited for arrival,
Once upon a time,
I believed in angels,
Beautiful winged creatures,
Part of a powerful army,
who were always on your side,
who would protect you from harm,
Once a upon a time,
I used to pray,
When everyone had a voice and it was heard by someone,
Where unaswered questions were released tot he sky,
Where my soft spoken fears were vanquished,
Once upon a time,
I believed in god,
He was always there, watching, waiting,
and I never questioned his plan,
He loved everything and saw everything,
Once upon a time,
I believed in people, 
humanity was alive,
humility flowed strong,
Once upon a time, 
I used to be alive,
Happy and vibrant,
Joyous and glowing,
Once upon a time,
I used to be me,
Spontaneous and caring,
trusting and soft,
Once upon a time, 
I used to dream, 
Dream of love and family,
dream of peace and sucess,
Dream of life and traveling,
Where lines were crossed and life had meaning,
I knew who I was and knew where to find me,
Its all in the past now, 
caged and lost,
In a very far place,  and never to be seen,
but every so often, 
i look in the dark places, seeking, searching,
for my once upon a time.
