Tall and stately
the gentle Queen
steps into the world
of dream
*
Steadfast
in her loyalty
Dignified
in her beauty
*
She walks forth
promising truth to all
but deep inside
the evil calls
*
The accolades
are never enough
More is needed
to satisfy the bluff
*
Satisfaction
slips through her hands
like the water
washed upon the sand
*
Meanwhile her subjects
One by one
Fall to their death
While she walks on
*
No rest for her
In a frenzied chase
Forever lost
Never to win the race
*
