unlovable

roses have thorns,

and the stars are too hot,

beautiful things don't get love.

they can't be touched,

only seen.

don't go near that bush, you'll get pricked.

don't look at the sun, you'll get hurt.

don't go near it,
don't look at it,
don't touch,
don't listen,
don't try to understand.

merely perceivable.

unlovable if not from afar.

seemingly perfect at first,

but don't get too close.

never get too close.
