As the darkness lurks behind her
She puts small foot in front of small foot
Large eyes and wily hair
The youngest of her clan
Her first day of school
Walking through forbidden forests
Laden with poison laced fruit
Her first day
In the big wide world
And all she has to guide her
Is the shadow that lurks behind
