Royal Temptation (Narrative Poetry)

Very very far away into a deep forest,

there was a castle ruled by a discontented Queen.

She ordered her people without fear and sympathy.

No one dared to confront her and stop her evil schemes. . .

♛

One day in the palace, a young girl came to play.

She asked the queen so dearly if she could let her stay.

But the queen stared at her furiously and said to her,

"You cannot stay in the palace, you wretched little girl!"

♛

So that night the sad girl went to the queen's room.

She stared at her with an evil smile, holding a dagger in her hand.

She slaughtered the queen with so much violence in a happy mood.

The next day, the girl became the new queen of her land. . .

♛

Very very far away into a deep forest,

there was a castle ruled by a spoiled little girl. . .

She tormented her people and was even worse.

The townspeople's sorrowful plight then returned. . .

♛

One day in the palace, a face just like the queen's

came to her and asked for a very short request. . .

"My dear sister, please come with me willingly. . .

Let's now return to our precious homeland."

♛

The girl who came to the palace was her identical twin.

"Please come with me, dear sister." That's what she said. . .

With those words of eagerness, which the queen can't bear to hear,

she soon thought of her sister as her most dreadful threat. . .

♛

So the queen took out the dagger she used to kill the former queen,

Wanting to violently kill and stab her sister's heart. . .

But instead of seeing her die and severely bleed,

She noticed that her flesh didn't even leave a scar. . .

♛

The queen looked into her chest; she bled through and through...

She killed herself because of her selfishness of rule

The dagger kept on digging in -- into her fragile chest

The selfish and foolish queen brought herself to death. . .

♛

Very very far away into a deep forest

There was a quiet castle where no one ruled. . .

Everyone there just laughed. Reason? No one knew. . .

Because each queen they had had died of the temptation of rule. . .

FIN.
