A Raven and a Dove

by Farah Karim aged 11

A raven and a dove,
Never meant to be.
Running off in dreams,
Escaping reality.

A murder, a mad hatter,
A martyr and a monarch.
The prophecy was written,
Leaving one in the dark.

A mission started,
A queen’s heart for a selfish boy.
A mission uncompleted,
A white rose that’d ruin another’s joy.

A tea party like no other,
Hats with dark power.
An offer to be rejected,
Leaving a face sour.

A broken heart,
A forbidden love.
A martyr and a monarch,
A raven and a dove.
