The Time-Turner
Regret is required,
forgiveness - denied.
The prince sick and tired,
the princess - untied.
The dragon unslaughtered,
the curses undone,
the damsel uncourted,
the batle unwon.
The treasure unfound,
the secret untold,
the ropes unbound,
the ashes unsold.
The gifts sent to sender,
The kisses unkissed.
The bitter, the tender,
The crying, the missed.
