Thorns Date: Sunday, 1st May 2005 @ 08:27:05 AM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: adsalamon Black thorns scratch at my heart Its vines twisting in knots, suffocate Bitter poison seeps through open wounds My soul lies naked, torn and beaten My spirit swings from a noose up high Vultures tear the flesh of my mind The walls of my castle lay as rubble Weeds poke through cracks like forests Seeds of despair you sowed take root This poem is Copyright © adsalamon Important note: ALL POETRY ON THIS SITE IS COPYRIGHT.
