At times, I see my life, caught, in a labyrinthine knot

In an instant, my thoughts are twisted, tightly furled

I should be filled with scorn, but happily, I am not

I’m content, just to live, in my own little world

A Rose like No Other ~ #poetry

Surrounded by the mighty firs
Cloaked in gossamer mists

A flower stands, the reddest rose
Waiting for his love, her kiss

She sits and watches quietly
Captivated by its desire to live

Among the barren land, where she
Is more than willing to forgive

This rose, perhaps her long lost love
Though she continues to just admire

Unsure if she should even touch
As her heart fills with desire

She reaches for the stem, so green
Unaware of the sharpest thorn

As blood trickles from her fingertip
She remembers why, with scorn

She was cast aside, a child, disgraced

No longer wanted in this place

She swore revenge, they knew not where

She would return, to find them there

Cowering still, in the blackened night

With only the glow from the candlelight

She followed it back, to the place she had left

Finding them sorrowful, sobbing, bereft

Why did they do that? How could they stay?

Surely she’d see them again, one day

Still, she felt no pity for those who had scorned

Malevolence, she had once forewarned

You’ve felt the flames of a lovers scorn

Those hands that touched your heart, forlorn

Yet, you haven’t felt, my fire, my soul

When I slowly burn, and take control

Of your heart, that once, was full of doubt

Is now a heart, so full, devout

For you’ve entered into my welcoming arms

Where I’ll safely keep you, away from harm
