The Curse of Carrie
She sat near the hearth staring into the flames
She then cast her wish and whispered his name
I’ve asked all gods of love and they’ve finally heard
It’s with this hope I speak these ancient words
Though I know you not I heard your name in a dream
In this very glade by this very stream
I pray you keep safe and find joy in your life
I pray you come find me and make me your wife
Across the far miles way out at sea
Standing on watch he shook violently
Her vision appeared and he heard his name called
When his soul returned it was lonely and cold
He soon left his ship and his love of the sea
To wander the lands his mind no longer free
His one purpose in life to search the earth
To hunt down the woman who gave him this curse
Neath a hill on a road where it crossed a stream
Collecting water the girl who haunted his dreams
I have not slept a night for these three years past
Since the night that you cursed me I’ve found you at last
He approached her with menace, her life he did demand
At the tears on her cheek the knife slipped from his hand
He embraced her lithe form as she fell into his arms
The turbulent seas of his mind were finally calmed
As I wandered these lands I could not take time to rest
I feared my dreams, I believed you’d called me in jest
But your soft spoken words ease all pains of the past
My prayers are answered you’ve found me at last
But your soft spoken words ease all pains of the past
My prayers are answered you’ve found me at last
