Thorns

Dresssed in white 
Stained with blood 
On her naked feet 
A silent dance she dances 

In the forest where the trees 
Scream out in agony 
As they reach for 
A faded and dying sky 

Stung by the poisoned thorn 
She walks the world 

She kisses the ground 
Where the flowers turned all gray 
And their scents were forever forgotten 
Together with her name 

Stung by the poisoned thorn 
She walks the world
