Rose Tinted Thorn



Rose Tinted Thorn

Don’t tread on the broken rose
Don’t walk on that shattered pose
Its love gone to repose that failed the test
Colors fading and stem strength degrading

Yet the thorn survives and become stronger
There’s no reason for this thrive any longer
But then, that’s what thorns do, it’s a reminder
In the middle alone and avoided, it’s the rejoinder

Where to now as it pricks naked feet?
The rose gone while the thorn stays, discreet
But felt and remembered because maybe it’s elite
It’s the lucky ones that feel and desire love’s sweet

Elixir of pain suffered by those that don’t love in vain
Chasing the true love they know that comes without a chain
They feel the torture of desire
They know time is unkind to love’s aspire
