Thorns of the Rose

It's a little rough around the edges

Look at this broken heart.
The thorns have torn it apart.
They do their job,
and they do it well.
What brought them?
Only one may tell.
But she who's love was ripped apart,
now sits silent in the dark.
"Oh the irony," she seems to say
"that those thorns were my rose only yesterday!"

Author's Note

I changed it 3 times, I decided this was the best.

it is a little rough around the edges...but still shows loads of promise...The only way that you can improve as a writer is to keep writing...reading...and listening.....(That is 3 ways)...Don't listen to me, i only write comedy.
