The Woman in Black

Around the cornerI see her.Along the streetsI see them.The oneWho bound me.Her ravensWho watch me.I cannot be freed.And I warn you to bewareOf the woman in blackAnd her ravensWith feathers and coatOf night and dark.She will bind youWith her spell.And bewareOf the rose she holds.She is not a woman.They are not ravens.It is not a rose.She is a witch.They are ghosts.It is a wand.
