THE CRYSTAL CAVE

she sleeps inside a crystal cave
dreaming deep dreams of better days.
sifting through long forgotten memories
she searches for something she cannot percieve

outside the days flash by and fade to grey
as tendrils of mist beckon the cave
But still she sleeps on, both night and day
guarded by the seven who's name i dread not say

she was born of blood and whitest snow.
Tragically destined to struggle
with no mother to show.
But her savage beauty brought more
grievance than gain
drowning her fairness with tears of pain

so this ivory princess
sleeps to be saved
dreaming her secret dreams
deep inside her crystal cave
