Ruins

Ah, their perfect place. 
A haven of safety. 
To do as they please,
Smile in calmness, 
Laugh at themselves. 
So beautiful, 
Their asylum from the world.  
Pretty leaves and twinkling sunlight.
As if Tinker's faery dust sprinkled close above. 
A place no one knew. 
Their little corner in the world. 

But
Those kids...
Following us...
This calm heaven was discovered. 
All evidence of them had to be erased. 
No one
Can..
Know about this. Or us. At all. 
Their footprints erased. 
Their comments taken into jars from the wind. 
Soon a human dystopia. 
Where the two could think happy thoughts no more. 

Fading away, these two, 
as more of societies members broke in,
With their own words to clog the hot air. 
They found their way through the miniature faery doors. 
The pair..
Sitting at a cold boulder,
Watching their home walked on by others.
