Will you tell me a story?
Will you weave together impossible worlds
With barely possible words?
Will you take my mind from here to there,
To that world and the next?
Will you wield the power of story like a wand,
Creating life with a flourish of the hand,
Bringing death with the flick of the wrist?
Will you open my eyes to the beauty of your dreams?
Will you dream to me?
Will you paint planets with your words?
Will you make me believe in things unseen?
Please, will you tell me a story?
I'll listen if you let me
With raptured gaze and bated breath, I'll listen
I'll cry at the sad parts and laugh when I should,
But mostly I'll just listen
You have stories locked within yourself
I think that I can open you. I think I have the key
You have tales of adventure, of love lost at sea
You've lived through myths
You've touched nightmares
You've tasted fairytales
I want your story like you want to tell it
Trust me, I'll listen.
Please, will you tell me a story?
