A cotton candy hearted girl

Within her a carnival

But a curious little boy

Broke through all the terminals

He walked over to the gate

Taking every step recklessly

Gate looks dusty and dull

But it sure wasn't ordinary

so here are the steps

of how he unlocked

The beautiful secrets

that others have mocked

Widely enough

He opened his eyes

And for the first time

The arcade witnessed a sunrise

Then with no permission

He built himself a home

And invasively

He began to roam

His presence filled a void

Down these empty halls

And his voice got louder

Echoing through the walls

At last he wondered

If this carnival got a name

He's only five and couldn't read

But his initials were carved on every game

The sign lit up

With his name on top

And the toys came alive

In the tiny gift shop

The only cost

was a silly ticket

that didn't just revive

but created a whole new spirit

but created a whole new spirit
