Thorn
By RedRoseProse

An oasis drowning eternally
love so perfect and sweet
eyes more gleeful then frolicking youngsters
has everyone taken a chance
lusting at a teenage master
laughter at stolen promises
lover mistakens broken crosses
angels in black
hang till air lacks
tossing and turning
stagnently learning
life's lessons
it begins
I have eaten from the tree of life
I long to see what its like
to live with others in life
alike and opposite in choices of love
I choose mostly opposite in this fight
to love and be loved other then motherly
she enters slowly
two choices are laid out before me
a lover cloaked with charcoal clouds
loads of depression characterize this child
the other is simple, bright, and merry
majestically present is a sense of carring
the first is Rose, the second is Thorn
Roses outward beauty guides me to her
coldness followed by rejection
Thorn merrily takes me in
We hold hands loving each other
I kiss firmly grasping my lover
serenity follows and happiness ensues
I want more!
Rose strolls along
whispers a proposal
she longs to be with
I grab Rose's hand
say good-bye to Thorn
leaving her to cry
trying to get a kiss
Rose says shes finished
and walks away
I hurriedly rush back to comfort my true lover
Thorn waves and takes off with a more deserving
moral to this story
care for what is right
leave your heart unstained
and pick a Thorn

*blinks* Shitness! A lesson I just barely learned, a lesson I'm still trying to talk my heart through...I chose the thorn, though, when it came time to choose...excellent, I relate all too well. ~*Beth*~
