Tinker, Lost Boys, Captive, Why?


Once upon a time, lived a boy who could not die

eventually. yes, but Peter was lonely at best

until one day he saw a band of brothers 

who looked so happy, together, forever

so he decided to take it for himself.

Many years later, the boys became lonely

Peter grew anxious

so he found them a fairy

he trapped her in a bottle

named her Tink

and now he keeps her under the kitchen sink

when people come to visit

Peter lets them play a game

"Your names are the Lost Boys and Tinker Bell, and you are my family."

They play along

and stay a secret, for Peter is oh so lonely.
