Not roses just thorns

A short poem ....

Why would you lay your head

On the shoulders that hurt you 

Why would you still hope they'd care

When they don't even notice you 

I know you did nothing wrong 

Wrote them the letters 

And sang them the love songs

But honey they're the ones

Who haunted you down

Don't go to them once they're gone 

They're not roses they're just thorns.

Author's Note

Just a short poem, I'm looking forward to write better ones in future. So, I'm free to any tips

Your words make sense, poetry and sensitivity, 'from the poet's desk' - seems you already 'write better

Write what comes to mind. Let that and your thoughts speakt naturally - as you already have.
