There once was a boy who never grew older,
Living in a world where time's never planned.
With the weight of the world off of his shoulder,
Flying in the sky you'll find Peter Pan.
Fighting pirates everyday in the sand
And dancing with Indians every night,
Peter lives happily in Never land
Found on the second star just to the right.
No worries or cares,no love, hate or lust
No guidance or responsibilities
He drowns all his feelings in pixie dust
Experiencing all our fantasies
Eternal youth is thrilling, I venture,
But to die would be the real adventure.

This piece was inspired by one of my favorite stories, Peter Pan. I always wanted to go to Never land!
