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
