Heart of Thorns

A rose to hurt one’s heart by its thorns

Heart of Thorns

My heart lived on,

through storms and cuts,

through sweet red blooms,

and broken roots.

It never asked why,

it simply beat,

carving truth

through every vein.

Love was heavy,

a twisting vine,

pulling tight,

pulling deep.

I walked with care,

holding the ache,

letting it teach

its quiet lessons.

Some roses heal,

some roses bleed,

some roses grow

because of pain.

And here I stand,

heart open still,

a little torn,

yet fiercely alive.
