A lady sitting on her throne
Looking regal but cruel
Seemingly heartless
Days go by on and on
People harshly beheaded
The reputation grows
Everyone knows about
The queen of hearts
And says that she has none
Her hair black as night
Thin and tall like an elf
Eyes sharp as a sword
But reflecting her
Lonliness and sadness
Mind numb with pain
She curses Fate for
Putting her there
And wishes she had died
Instead of her love
Her beloved of late
Continually mourning
He was beheaded
By the queen before her
And here she is
Sitting on her throne
Killing other people
Without a choice
Grieving inside
Feeling the guilt
Taking the blows
Wanting to die
To escape her destiny
To be with her love
