The Queen and Gem

A queen reclines in her golden hall Her dreams ignite, her spirit calls Her crown of jewels, a weight she bears Her kingdom’s vast, yet none compares To the gem of lore, a fiery star Its light her guide, her heart afar Legends whisper of its flame A power wild, a love untamed She speaks to winds, commands the sky The gem, her want, her heart’s reply Through quiet nights, her thoughts entwine The gem, the fire, her soul’s design Oh, magic gem, I long for thee A light that burns eternally Your fire calls, your glow divine Through secret lands, your heart is mine The gem lies far, where rivers bend Through ancient woods where trails suspend Beneath the moon in a serpent’s keep Where wanderers tread and treasures sleep She weaves her spells with a velvet tone A queen, a seeker, a throne alone Her path is set, her fate is clear To claim the gem she holds so dear A sapphire sky, a ruby glow The power waits, its pull she knows The gem a key to gates unseen A fire unbound, a ruler's dream Oh, magic gem, I long for thee A light that burns eternally Your fire calls, your glow divine Through secret lands, your heart is mine The prize in hand, it sings, it burns A bittersweet reward she earns Its light reveals the price she paid A tethered soul, her choices laid She holds it close, it claims its due A flame that feeds on what she knew Her heart once free, now bound to stone A queen’s desire, now hers alone Oh, magic gem, you shine so bright A fleeting glow in eternal night The queen, the flame, forever twined A tale of longing, lost in time
