I heard you were bored.
so here you go
you want woe
then read my tale
a story of whoa
A WITCH I SOUGHT
One
dark and dreary night
all Hallows Eve
I
walked through the forest
no
sense of the horror
my
love had cheated
a
lie he repeated
the
pain severe
my
destination unclear
but
in a clearing
I
found
a
garden of beauty
forget-me-nots,
roses
chyrsthamums
and
a gargoyle doing guard duty
all
kinds of posies
lifted
my spirit
and
gave me hope
but the effigies
filled me with terror
it
was truly a sight
still,
beauty held my heart
then
I noticed
a
cabin with smoke curling
my
thoughts were swirling
an
abode of mystery
a witch with history
her
advice, I sought
and
then I bought
magic in a bottle
the sorcerer told me
if
true love is your goal,
and
your lover's heart is true
only
you, he will see
no
more will he stray
but
if his heart lies
into
a hideous gargoyle of stone
will
he turn
forever
to guard over thee
but
never more will he roam.

did my story fulfill your wish
did I serve you a delightful dish
are you curious to see
the result of she
then come back tomorrow
for more sorrow
MUAHAHAHAHA!
