Second Star to the Right


I am immoral and malevolent.

I wonder why my parents abandoned me all those years ago.

I hear the screams and cries of my “lost boys” as they feel the night air of Neverland.

I see a metal hook.

I want Wendy to stay here with me… forever.

I am lost and broken.

I pretend that I can actual replace my “lost boy” parents; they know that they don’t need them.

I feel a great power as I play my Pan Flute. As the kids fall right into place behind me, leaving the world they know behind.

I touch and collect souls of my lost boys.

I worry that Wendy will leave me when she sees me for what I really am.

I cry over nothing. I wasted to many tears on my parents long ago.

I am villainous.

I understand what I have done to these kids, but they would have been worse off if I would have left them behind with their sorry parents.

I tell them everything will be okay and I am all they need.

I dream about more power and a future here in Neverland with Wendy.

I try to gain more children’s souls.

I hope to the most evilest of them all.

I am Peter Pan.
