Once a Full Moon

In the halls of this great place
Creeps a sleepy, familiar face
And he only rises but once a full moon

He sneaks along the marble floor
And the moonlight shines in through the door
That is only opened once a full moon

The maidens stand all in a row
Silently he chooses his bow
But his arrows are only used once a full moon

Once every girl he has kissed,
He straightens his arm, raises his fist
Ready for the choice he makes once a full moon

When the tip had pierced her chest
She smiled to know she'd beat the rest
And she was his lover for once a full moon

But he remained so unamused
Knowing she would only be used
To sate his hunger but once a full moon
