Once We Were

Once we were
in our peace
with our lives
asured
Once we were
not afraid
of the dark
Once we sat
in our kingdom
with hope
and pride
Once we ran
through the fields
with great
strides.
We held
the Fade
and the
demon’s flight
so far
from our children
and from our lives
We held together
the fragile sky
to keep our way
of life
Once we raised
up our chalice
in victory
Once we sat
in the light
of our dreams
Once we were
in our home-land
with strength
and might
Once we were
not afraid
of the night
We held
the Fade
and the
demon’s flight
so far
from our children
and from
our lives
We held together
the fragile sky
to keep our way
of life
