Storyteller



locked in a steely cage
a ravenous beast at large
a fairy princess in a debt
knights riding across the marsh
universe transformed
into a magical place
shimmering castles
glimmering halls

touted as the world's greatest
evil, conspiring, conniving, lot!
the hero all alone, but brave
fearless and bright.. in the dark!
dragons and dark lords
awaiting their fate
kings and elves .. showing the path!

They all reside in a fairytale
and they all reside in our hearts..
inspired in a lonely night
they teach us to fight
they teach us to laugh
coz the world might be a dreary place
but in a story.. we can skip that part :)

Gotcha!

Like i was told once, the story needs no confirmation or evidence. Just the fact that it is being told, makes the storyteller a true man, and the story a fact in itself. :-)

Loved this.
