Bewitched Lovers
She was haunting the wilderness of Night
With the darkness over her damned Essence.
Suddenly, a roving mortal caught her sight;
She had dark grimace on her countenance.
She ambled towards the forlorn young man,
She stopped as if someone grabbed her hand.
On the man’s head, there was a flashy crown;
He must be a Prince from some distant-land.
Once, she too was a Princess on this earth
Until someone bewitched her with a curse
That She will live within the life-in-death.
Will God still bestow her any reimburse?
Bewitched, she never had the time to love.
Now this new Love has bewitched her again,
Her rotten heart was fluttering like Dove.
Her misery reminded her of the utmost pain.
She prayed to God for a divine miracle
In a slight hope that she was still hanging
Between life and death, with a debacle
That befell on her without her longing.
Finally, God took pity on her ill provision
And bestowed her gifts of Love, Eternal.
Her dead skins freshened with apparition
Of Existence, once bewitched, infernal.
The Princess then met her despondent Prince,
Who too fell in love at the very first sight of her.
Their two hearts were blessed with inner peace
Though they were bewitched in love, forever.
