Alone I am
Only the plants of my garden
For company
Not a husband to dine with
To share my joys and secrets with
No children to run about, gleefully
Giving the color of life
To this lonely place
As the golden globe floats down
Below the horizon, I dolefully sigh
Saying goodnight to my rampion
My only friends, my loves
Planting a kiss upon one
In my tower I swiftly blow out the flames
Tomorrow will be another day
Just the same, just the same
Brushing sounds amongst the bushes
I awaken to an intruder
Who dare trespass me?
A man I see, in desire of
My precious rampion
Not my rampion!
The only jewels of my heart
I approach him, he pleads
His wife will surely die
Without the nutrition
Given by my only precious
How could I say no?
But this may be my only chance
To escape the valley of solitariness
I demand he give me his child
His wife will soon bear
Graciously, he accepts my terms
And soon enough the child
Came into this cold world
Offering warmth with a soft smile
I come to collect my
Bland new jewel
Loved beyond all others she will be
The man dares to deny me
We had a deal, my venomous words
Struck them both frozen cold
The child is mine
Her blue eyes sparkled of diamonds
Hair shining of golden thread
Skin soft as my silken pillow
This child was perfect
The perfect jewel to at last
Bring end to my bareness
My Rapunzel
Never will I let you go
