Beautiful face,
sexy voice
So big deep heart
And sweet kind words
Big blue eyes
And a lovely smile

But I know I have
Bleeding heart every while

I should stop being me
I should stop hurting deep
Although I never want to do
Never have it in my mind
It just happens
And then aches badly my heart

They just come and smell
Like I was the rose
They want to pick me
But I have thorns
I always say I have
They are stone-deaf
Keep saying
I only want to smell
But I know that trying to bend
Trying to cut my stem

All I need are loving friends
To share all good and bad
All I need is to know
I have somebody close
Thinking to change myself
Thinking to close
and hide deep inside,
To be Withered rose
Then..will not matter
I have thorns
Then no one will try to pick me
Will I then be happy?

OH AIKA,
You have yourself a winner here my dear.
Brought many a tear...
Is so true, when you are beautiful
People never see the other side.
But Aika....they know it is there, for you see they too have the same thing.
Just enjoy the attention, and never fret about the rest.
Your heart is beautiful, and is the best!
I loved your poem Aika....when I was a young girl I used to feel the same way!
love you,
Connie

Aika...beautiful poem, sad but beautiful. Touched my heart because everyone deserves a close friend. In my opinion because I have also asked "Will I then be happy?" - I think that if they are the right person then they will try their best to make you happy. I too wish for one of these people. I do hope you will find one soon. All the best, and take care.
Emma.

You will never be a whithered rose, Aika.
You are a precious rose, the most beautiful in the world......And the thornes? I don't see them or feel them! ..Nig xxx
