i am a rose.

i am a rose.

i am craved after one upon another

i open my petals and they come.

they steal, they grab, they touch and feel.

The center of my body

is where your attention draws

for what i can "satisfy" you with

is why  i will ever be loved.

come lay me down

and hollow my soul

for a touch that can hurt is all

i have ever known.

i am nothing more then a rose

forever being wanted for the opening of my petals

and not for my roots and soil.

The world gives us nothing

but a solitude called life.

and once again…

i show my rose

and your simply satisfied..

Author's Note

petals referring to sexual atenntion and in physical form legs.

Beautiful!!! Oh to find the one that just smells the flower and lets it grow...watches it in the morning as it stretches itself out to meet the sun..

The need and want of life. Leave us wanting more than we should. I liked how you used the rose and the petal to make you point. I liked the poem. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

well I`m sure this is true for the most part, but sex is just part of a wonderful relationship
feelings go much deeper and satisfies just as much
