WHITE

This flowery path i walk upon

makes me bleed

beneath  those beautiful flowers

lie the sharpest thorns

on this white flowery expanse

i walk

leaving behind me a trail

a trail of crimson footprints,

staining this white flowery carpet 

i leave behind reminders

the flowery bracelets 

encircling my wrists

dig deep, thorns piercing

red droplets fall

from my fingers

leaving behind 

gleaming ruby stains

yet i smile and walk

looking straight ahead

never let my smile falter 

never let the pain show through


because
who would believe?

that such innocent 

white flowers

would have such 

sharp thorns

thorns you can never get rid off .
