I tried to ignore you today,

but you understand thorns,
and claimed advantage
over my soft spots.
Will tomorrow
be different?

Wonderful writing, Ms Midnitesun~  
I adore these thoughts of yours.
Yes, those thorns are reminders of something beautiful.

Love your title too.

Oh, dear Kacy!

Your laser sharp words just touched me profoundly! A refined rendering of a deep thought.

Still we continue to trust tomorrow.

Love,

You're quite welcome. Not sure which one you read, but if it inspired this, then I'm very pleased.

And I understand.

hi Kacy...I hope each thorn you feel will remind you of how very tender your heart is.  Sometimes that can be a good thing.
