The Darkened Path

THE DARKENED PATH

Tread not The Wrapround Ways
For Darkness Lies Beyond 
In Stilling Waters wait

Past Hidden Doors, Quick Fairy Rings, and Sunset Gates

Over and through
A Land of Knights and Twisted Dream
True Black Between

Some Came Back
The Beast Came Too

The GreenMans Own, Once Just and Kind
LordMaster, King of All

Carried off
by Black Treachery

Down and Down
Deaths Twisted Path

And Some say Back

To and From
A Land forgot
Once Grace and Twilit Wonder

Now Shadow Claimed, And Winter Cold

Lost its Heart and then Its Prince
Wretched Victims All

Blood Closed Doors, Broken Rings, and Fallen Gates
A Land of Wonder Lost 

Seek not the Wrapround Ways
Men Come Back No More...
