    Rose's Prick

    Prick your finger on a rose
    Feel the sting
    Watch it bleed
    And bleed and bleed

    Bleed out the pain that you have endured
    Feel your heart pump it out as it beats
    And beats and beats

    Beating still after all of the suffering that has been
    Feel it alive
    It flutters as you cry
    And cry and cry

    Crying for never knowing how beautiful things could have been
    Feel the soft petals
    Slide your fingers down the stem

    Only to prick your finger once again

    Yes, many roses have more than one thorn. I like this poem, made me think a bit of an emotional time holding a rose...

    This is a very well thought out piece...doesn't seem as though it deserves being unread by others on this site...........................g

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
