I loved roses
Wild roses
Roses with colour
Roses with thornsI got roses thrown at me once
They lied
I cringed
And the flowers suffered the painI got roses thrown at me twice
I cried
I wanted to touch them
But they offered the rose thorns to meI wanted them so badly
To feel their warmth
I got them so painfully anyway
Standing on the top of my grave and staring as they drop one petal at a timeThey were beautiful
Soft , shiny
They were thornless for a moment
I had hoped someone had sent them to me while I was still able to smell them.
