A little poem I made about the tragic song "Servant of evil".
We are but twins in the hands of fate

the grownups our future would dictate



You are to be queen

At the tender age of fourteen



I am chosen as your servant

For only I think of you as exuberant



The commoners hate you

And no noble will you woo



Resisting your control or not

Any fighting will be for naught



For however it all plays out

feed your greed they shall without doubt





I saw the queen of our neighboring country

Her beauty making me sultry





Even so, her betrothed

is the only person you have never loathed



You want him for yourself

And I shall see to that myself



Her life shall be taken

To sleep and never awaken



I am here to serve only you

By killing her I’ll make your love true



We are but twins in the hands of fate

And all your worries I shall alleviate





Enraged by my deed

A revolutionary leader mounted her steed



Destroying the castle gate

they swarmed in, wanting to seal our fate



I told you to run away from here

Their voices I could already hear



I took your extravagant clothes

But you froze



I shall take your punishment

Your death I shall prevent



With tears in your eyes

You took a hood for a disguise





I am now the queen

Soon to never again be seen

For the enraged commoners are here

To make me forever disappear





At three o’clock

My cell shall unlock



My head from my body they shall sever

For stopping your death is all I endeavor





Someone is running through the crowd

Stopping in front of me wearing a shroud



I see you in front of me crying

Wanting to hinder me from dying



But it is to late

This is my fate



I can hear the blade swinging

And I have barely time to see you cringing



But I smile at you

Knowing we’ll sometime meet anew





We are but twins in the hands of fate

And a new life you will create



Till we meet again

Where there is no pain
