curse of the princess
wind chanted the songs of the damned souls
mist covered the lake letting the drowned float
the old hag walked out of the woods stirring a bowl
they say it’s the curse of the Hades for what she wrote
a princess’ letter to Hades with promising words
it was a mischievous act but the darkness had its own will
her naked body is covered in arrows and swords
some pierced through her heart but nothing seems to kill
whoever came to kill her now floating in the lake
the curse turned the princess into this cannibal
she fished a body and peeled the skin with a rake
began to eat the flesh she started with an eyeball
