She'll Come Back
they had left the window open
with only a thin blanket
to cover them in the night
and so, the cold overtook them
when you told the Darlings
that it was called “Neverland”
is it because when you die
you can never go back
you didn’t know Peter,
that they had not died
they were just sleeping
for a few months
she’ll return, Peter
one day, she’ll come back,
she’ll find the second star to the right,
and fly straight on till morning
after all, to die
would be an awfully big adventure
