Hansome rose of deepest red is thou art,
To tease a bee unto your sweet necter,
And forth to bask in thee amorous scent,
Those blood red petals now only skin deep,
Your beauty now only binded of sharp thones,
Your stems may twist and coil set traps for hearts,
Wither thou innocent hearts they may be,
To again stumble upon black heart of lies,
Amist cold icy air which thou draw breath,
Your time to wither and fade has yet to come,
Your thones to loose and leaves to turn golden,
Till then thou posion many hearts to come,
But of scars now healed twice ov'r heart,
To beware your thones and deep petals red.

I breathe the dust, the dust is me.

a heart in love is always freely given. I reflected on this one for quite a few moments. It was utterly sad for it reduced love to a mere "evil."

Sea - Thanks means a lot.

Lady of Shallot - not reduce love to evil but some people do not know love and blunder though life hurting people. But thank you.

Very touching, I have felt just like this. The rose stands for so much.
