Like a Rose?

by enfant du tordu chagrin   Jul 24, 2005


"Love is like a Rose"
It's often been said
And as such, blooms beautiful
But ends up being dead

Like a Rose it has it's thorns
But these pierce not the skin
These thorns pierce to the heart
Hurt you deep within

Love never truly dies you say?
How can this be true?
When something hurts you heart and soul
Leaves your thoughts so few

Though it's true you'll always feel
You'll never forget
Loss forever scars your heart
Leaves eyes readily wet

    Beautiful poem. I however, believe that when u find the true love of your life, all that pain and hurt built up over the years is for a cause. Because again, "the pain now if part of the happiness then." Its all a balance. If we had it perfect then there would be nothing to strive for. Love is neverending. No matter how many times we say to ourselves, after this person, i shall never love again. It is never dying in a sense that if the flame dies for one, it can be rekindled by another. Ambitons and dreams and love are what rule minds and prevail if given the chance. To truly be happy one must be content with themselves, in order to love others, and hence meaning is found in pain. In order to be content with oneself, one must see through ungaurded eyes, the eyes of love, so beautiful and distinct in their presence. Also, before any meaning can be given to the larger picture, the little details must be regarded for. I love this poem and the way you think. Very nice work:)

    oh if u get a chance, could u read mine titled "him and her" or "innocence"?
