Bleeding Thorns Poem by bediro oneday

Life's so tough,
They used to tell,
Thorns and stones
All way through!

Next very day,
I went to shop
Exchanged my foot,
Thorn-proof, it said.

Far away from yesterday,
I looked back to the way
Tip of thorns grinned at me,
I smiled back looking my foot.

No scratch it wore, after all,
To test again, would be fun,
I took a thorn, touched my feet,
Then oozed out, a red fluid! ! ! !

It was no thorn-proof!
The truth struck me then,
It was my confidence,
Which led me all the way! ! !
