Have you ever heard the story
How the Sun so loved the Moon
That he died every night
Just to let her breathe

Have you ever heard the story
How the Moon so loved the Sun
That she followed him everyday
Just to see his face

Have you ever heard the story
Of the star-crossed lovers in the sky
Who loved each other so
But were destined to never meet

Have you ever heard the story
Of the love, the sun and moon had
That would endure
For as long
As they saw
The rise and fall
As they too
Fell and rose.

I saw the first stanza online and searched for an author but couldn't find one and I just had to finish it. So I tweaked it a bit and wrote a poem about it.

I believe in everything until it is disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it&#039;s in your mind. Who&#039;s to say that dreams and nightmares aren&#039;t as real as the here and now?<br /> -John Lennon
