Nightmare/ Forest Maze
Poetry By: Bazal Morani
Careful what you tell others as secrets are afloat
If you mention the forest creatures they will come and slit your throat
Beware the mud on the ground as it gives powers to the animals around
Listen carefully as victims don’t make a sound
Keep your friends close as they may lose their way
Don’t go chasing after them or lost you will stay
You face a creature that looks just like you and it comes your way
It will imitate you completely and will take your place
Its sharp fang-like teeth will come at you and bite through your face
Then play your role with your friends with undeniable grace
They will let the creature in unaware of the threat
As you never told them what they should truly fret
But while your friends deal with the creature, you wake up in a house
One with a witch that haunts and chooses your spouse
Beware as if you see even a shadow of even her nail
She will entrap you without fail
You will marry the one she chooses even if you love another
You can not leave her gardens even though she can follow you further
The neighbors around you are unaware of the threats you face
But they themselves are a huge disgrace
To avoid getting in trouble you must follow the math
If you do not do things to her liking, you will face her wrath
So beware the Forbidden Forest as you never know what’s around the corner
As there are many creatures lurking there and the torture is never truly over
