Cassiopeia

You were spectacular
And the kingdom bowed
To your beauty
You were invincible
A queen, her majesty

But envy reigned
And fear ruled over
Your empty dreams
Swallowed you up
The light that you were
Blinded you down

The cloth that was
covering your scar
Transformed to thorns
Cut, bruised your skin
Bleeding in shame

Radiance fade
Stoned in your last wish
Darkness echoed
A curse hanging
From the vast milky way
