The long wait was finally over
And she knew he'd come to take her away
All her pain was coming to an end
She knew she was going to be free today
The long wait had made her weak and frail
Yet she was determined to look good
She put on her best dress and brushed her hair
And went to meet him in the wood(s)
The hours slipped by at snail's pace
Sunshine turned to twilight
But she knew he'd come stealthily
Like a burglar in the dead of night
She heard a wolf howl in the dark
And knew he was not far away
Time was ticking faster now
She knelt down one last time to pray
She saw a white light approach her
And welcomed him with open arm(s)
He came like the wind and swept her away
And everything around turned quiet and calm
Next day a villager passing by
Dumbstruck he was by what he found
A beautiful woman among the woods
Lay cold and stiff on the ground !!
