"Teddy Dragon Bear" -> "Weeping Woods"

The Agony of Alice  by teddydragonbear

 

Atop the black cliffs stood a castle

It was topped with a large shining pearl

The lost child of a castle servant

Was born an innocent quiet girl

 

Sadly all castles have their secrets

This castle was built to seal a cave

Within were ancient tomes of power

Three skeletons of evil a grave

 

The sea is relentless under cliffs

A crack grew slowly up to castle

No one noticed the crack in the stones

Cave air seeped up into the castle

 

Little beautiful Alice's bed

Was the nearest to that secret grave

This air gave her dreams of dark dire things

They taught her this world she could enslave

 

No one living knows just how she changed

All do know pearl and castle are gone

The crack opened and it all fell in

Alice's heart is now like black stone

 

On dreaded moonless nights she comes out

Standing on the edge she raises arms

Her pale white soft skin glows evilly

From the sea rises such great alarm

 

Through the land they call her the black witch

She has lived many generations

Upon the souls and flesh of the young

And the downfall of many nations

 

From the sea arises an old boat

This she rides through the lands with her vile

Spreading the agony in her heart

To all that live with her evil smile
