Relationship is like a bouquet,*
Love is the real fragrance,
Just like marigolds and roses,
The religions are the same,
Just like Vedas and Moses,
Miles of smiles sewn together,
Just like starry heavenly poses.

Still flowers fade one day,
Same about the love I felt,
Wild flowers don't need care,
Wild love won't require care,
Mine couldn't be as true,
A judgment was passed.
It wasn't passed by you.

It was passed by people,
The people around you,
You were manipulated,
They infuriated you finally,
Inside I knew it'll be failed,
No I do not blame you,
I know how cursed I am.

Growing thorns protect
Cut from the nutritious ground
Hung until they break
Tsaa Dec 2015
I saw the cuts
My reflection on the blood
They turned into scars
A symbol of your personal war
But believe it or not
You were still beautiful

I saw you crying
I knew the reason why
I witnessed those tears dry
And I let you rest on my shoulder
But despite your dark side
You were still beautiful

You pushed people away
Your heart punctured with thorns
The people you associate with is limited
I am rarely a part of that circle
But the fact that you do indeed feel these things
That makes you beautiful

They said she looks like art
But they could not see the thorns in her heart
Neither could they see the hidden storm in her eyes.

Your touch is a bliss

But your hands wore thorns
For you, who I loved
Kerri Nov 2015
The wiry thorns around
Your heart
Keep everyone out.
But I risk the pain
And reach inside
Tearing my flesh,
Because the prize is
Worth far more
Than the suffering
I endure without
Your love.
I'd do
Anything you ask
To hear your heart beating
Once more with affection.
The closed-off
Little girl hiding
Inside
Can be free.
I want to hold her
Until she feels
Whole again,
And softly kiss
The woman that resides,
As her icy blood
Begins to pump again;
To the beat of  TRUE LOVE.

Roses have thorns like the pain in my heart…
But they have soft petals like the light that comes in through the window in the early morning…
The blood red color of the petals fills my heart with blue blood cells needing replenishment…
But the soft feel reminds me of the time I caught her eyes and she caught mine….
The thought of falling again brings the bittersweet memories to my mind in a whirlwind of petals floating across the sky….
As I spin with the petals I think of the times I held you close and landed a gentle kiss on your forehead…
And the time I felt my face burn after the words of snakes slipped from my tongue…
The fluttering petals swallow me with the light feeling of love…
This light feeling brings me in a full circle again and I feel like I’m going to be sick…
And then it passes as the crimson petals continue on their way to another couple…
To create moments full of despair and sadness for those who have betrayed the other like…
The thorns on a rose who betray the beauty of the thing….

Do you remember the times when we though we would not make it?
I do.
They are more vivid to me then that which was last night.
It haunts my very soul- the idea of life without you.
But every time that wretched thought of walking away surfaced, we managed to push it under.

Do you remember the times when it seemed that nothing would pull us down?
I do.
I cherish these moments like I cherish life itself.
The moments of glee,
The moments of gay thought,
The moments of love.

I hold on to them to get through the moments of Hell.
The moments of depression and fatigue.

They get me though the dark.

Do you remember that night?
Oh, that night where we gave each other the promise of ourselves.
The promise to never give up,
To walk through the roses and the thorns together,
To hold each other dear, no matter how far away.
Do you remember?
I do.
And I never plan on letting it fade.
Here's to life and promises

Petals drenched in crimson
Delicate to touch
Has its own defense
Stem covered in thorns
***** pale fingers
Draws blood when grasp
Both a beauty and a danger
