Forever Sleeping.

A daughter was born
In a beautiful kingdom,
Child to the King and Queen.
She goes by the name of Aurora,
Full of beauty and with grace.

A joyful day this was supposed to be,
Until the witch who entered,
Revealed a plot of horror,
Attempting to commit murder.

I will poison her with a syringe.
Said the sister of the Queen.
Her name was Maleficent,
A vile and cruel being.

Maleficent was a jealous creature,
Jealous of her sister.
For stealing the man she really loved,
And this was her revenge to get her.

"When I poison her, you'll see,
My justice will be served."
I will not allow it. Stop her,
Commanded the worried King.

Maleficent protested,
I will kill her I say.
They brought her to the dungeon,
But then the Witch ran away.

My Queen this will not happen,
Swore the three trusted Godmothers.
Take my baby and save her,
The queen begged and pleaded.

"I promise you my Majesty,
We'll raise her as our own."
The queen thanked the Godmothers,
And forever they were gone.

"We'll hide you and protect you
But you'll live a normal life."
They took Aurora to her new home,
Where she was safe from harm.

Aurora grew up happily,
Until the day she discovered,
The truth about her parents.
Which forced her to run away.

Prince Phillip tried to warn her,
But she was angry and refused.
She did not listen to her love.
Her family was all she wanted.

Maleficent found Aurora,
And posed as her real mother.
Naive Aurora believed her,
And was poisoned by syringe.

Too late was the Prince.
She had already fallen.
He took her to the hospital,
Hoping for a miracle.

The doctors informed him,
Of a tragic, fatal condition.
Although she will not die,
A coma, she was in.

Forever sleeping will she be,
For she can no longer wake.
Nothing could be done ,
To save her from deep sleep.
