In a Dark Room For Halloween

It was the night of Halloween I danced, all alone in my room Dressed up as the great Queen I found not any peace Why my mind was wild and loose It sought out to find my heart's lost peace I stopped short, when it did happen My wardrobe door did open And out came a ghoul His breath was foul When he did speak thus Pray, be not scared I am here to instruct you The life you do live is not true So do learn to enjoy and love it Love it in its every bit Love each step that you do beat For it shall not be given twice Be still not scared For you I shall throw this dice The result shall be the outcome of your life In a dark dark room, for Halloween While I danced, all dressed up as the queen My life was built up, by a most foul ghoul The outcome was not horrible I did learn to be sensible Life, filled with thorns, can also be lovely! The ghoul did go back into the wardrobe I never saw him again But I did learn to love this life of pain! Lived only once it is It shall someday be over Someday, I shall be in a world, yonder!

Cool, I like the way you mixed in halloween with the moral of living only once. Best of luck if you are entering this in the contest, :)
