Needle-like

by Everlasting   Oct 21, 2016


At the bottom
of the button of a rose,
there stemmed a needle-like
with thorns,

And when I got sadder,
I just gripped it tighter
and I pulled the flower...

and with it,
I sewed my dripping heart

....

apart.

    Hi, Lucero

    I like the imagery here. It's true too; the harder it is the more pain that's inflicted. Moral: if love hurts, you're doing it wrong!

    Take care,

    Jeez, this got me badly. It's so powerful and though things ay be beautiful they truly aren't all the times.

    Take care, Em
