Priestess

 

I do not recognize her

Until it is too late

By then she’s done her magic

To my lifeline, and my fate

She so gently puts the question

“What is it that you want?”

And now the seed she’s planted

In my mind begins its haunt

Till I can think of nothing else

Till I can not recall my name

As her question grows within me

I feel the terror of the sane

It is her eyes that have revealed her

Beneath the glamour she has cast

But by now it is no matter

For the spell has taken fast

Grasping for an answer

Held by a vision of her now

Ageless and eternal

The crescent shining on her brow

Then all at once I see her reason

All at once I see her plan

The enchantment works its magic:

I remember who I am.
