withered roses

short romantic despair

Leaves danced along the ground

bloodied roses petals

now withering

as the fall befell 

for love without pain 

there is no beauty

cause even the prettiest of roses 

do indeed have thorns~

[Aarti Sriram]

Your poem is so brief and I think that adds to its impact. It delivers a poignant message. And dear Gothicmummy98 you did it without unnecessary words. Keep writing thanks for a great share!

Indeed, some of them even have knives.
