When Thorn and Rose Entangle


 
Moss green in-cling n' creeping
vines twist, sweet on deceit.
Licked dark, like bloodied-red
~so...hearing the silence bleed...~
 
Stems grown in veined madness
wrap firm, a beating heart-sign.
Greens 'n'dried-sanguine sadness
~This image frozen in my mind~
 
Curled thorns, run sharp through
spreading petals 'midst jade stain.
Sting in Ardour, mornings after,
~still working through the pain~
 
Petals weep contingent pinks
to blend a wishing-well of peace.
Thorns, massive, on petal's seep-
~lust-pain, It even startles ..me~
