Into the woods girl of snow,
Hair of midnight,
Eyes aglow.
Darkness calls for blood of fair,
Her highness rules, a heart of despair.
The throne, it aches for you, dark debonair.
By fairest blood is her curse undone
Oh, what a monster has Fairest become...
Once innocent and pure as mornings first light,
Then all at once, enveloped in inky night.
Mirror, Mirror on the wall,
Who is fairest of them all?
Secrets even thee can't recall.
Cower, cower, rise and fall,
Fairest can't ignore her call.
In plain sight, white as snow hides,
The enchanted trees her savior and guide.
Apple dark as blood red wine,
Sweet, sickly so,
Fairest goes where none can follow.
Casket of glass does shield her light,
Her Highness diminished the brightest of bright.
A Prince fair and just comes to her aid,
Refusing to let the Snow White light fade.
True Loves kiss did break her curse,
Not a moment longer shall they fear the worst.
A shard of glass catches Fairest's hand,
A drop of blood taken up by the land.
Her Highness no longer hunts for Snow,
Her angelic face can she finally show.
No longer must she hide, afraid,
Her kingdom rejoices her new-found reign.
Locked away does the Mirror hide,
Secrets shielded from those of pride,
Until The Fairest of Them All,
Rises once more against them all.
Into the woods now, girl of fire,
Eyes of amber, sage, and ire,
Fly to those who rank much higher.
Take on a destiny,
Many years before even white as snow came to be.
A time when magic ran free,
When only the Mirror foretold the secrets you see.
And by true love and fairest blood,
Were all their curses said and done.
All was conquered and deemed,
A Happily Ever After
Fairytale indeed.
