Words of a thief to make the heart weep,
witches, casting a spell
only true love could ever break the spell
Oh, what a cost to there plot.
while the knights who ride along the lines
where queens are made in dreams
in the sight of ancient times.
I care not about the evil enemies
because they are a part of the story
my work of darkening dreams
where it is I hear all those screams
crying out to me
I do cherish them
because they care about me
because my writing is fiction
and it holds a big part of my writer's imagination
that keeps the ink spilling.
