Skin like snow,

Hair like the night,

Blood red lips,

Tragic Snow White.

For years and years,

Her story was told,

As a mere fairytale,

Boring and old.

But the real tale,

Chills one to the bone,

Not coated in sugar,

This one stands alone.

She was a beauty,

Lovely to behold,

But that spoilt princess,

Had a heart that was cold.

Now, before I tell,

This tale of plight,

You must remember,

Snow wasn't so bright.

So when that stranger,

Came at dusk,

You can expect,

She made no fuss.

Claiming he was a prince,

He told of riches and gifts,

And greedy Snow White,

Could not resist.

She leapt onto his horse,

Clutching him tight,

They rode through the forest,

And into the night.
