Invitation Dare

Only the bold may enter These strongholds of your heart Only the strong will conquer The deep and dark divide You dare them test the limits Of the rules that you have set And woe betide the one who Fails to be his best The tasks you set are woeful And burdened down with care And all who enter calmly May never leave a tear To stain the treads you laid So carefully and made The steps you laid out fully That nothing should remain So come who wishes to alter The pattern of his mind And change the way he feels Forever about his kind
