She is an addictive flower
that blooms in my gardin

Beautiful petals and lace
yet I dare not touch her
because those men that do
can never let her go,
and in the end
are themselves destroyed

this is really awesome, I love how you describe things in here!

Like scout said, it was short and powerful, but there is some talent in doing that.  If you can put power into that little poem, you gotta be good!

How did this slip by me?

I really enjoyed this.
Short yet filled with emotion.
Nicely written.
I hope you continue to post again.
