The Rose with Torns


Each paddle on the rose tells a different story.

Layer by layer pealed away til it show the seed.

As the rose are beautiful and soft and smooth.

Even help get you in the mood.

The torns stick through its stem.

Each one draws blood from different people.

Mostly from the ones that were closer to home. 

Beauty bring pain to all it touches.

The Rose with the torns.
