Shall you try to grasp it's beauty.

The more you bleed
Sweet drops of crimson pearls
Adorned on petals soft as clouds
Worn like battlefeild scars
Carrying the burden heavy as pride.

Thorns of a Rose

Life is but thorns of a rose
It will cut your hand
Shall you try to grasp it's beauty.
The more you touch,
The more you bleed
Sweet drops of crimson pearls
Adorned on petals soft as clouds
Worn like battlefeild scars
Carrying the burden heavy as pride.
Life is but thorn of a rose-
The more you touch
The more you bleed,
The more you love
The more you hurt....

This is beautiful. You seem to digress a good way into the poem, and I lost the meaning along the way. In any case, it's definitely the work of a poet.

"To be a writer is to spend an hour looking for one word, but making one word more meaning than all the world."

Hi !
That was nice.
to the point .I especially like the comparison of wounds of a broken-heart and battle field scars.Nursing a freshly injured heart couldn't agree with you better .the more you love the more it hurts..

'The more you touch
The more you bleed,
The more you love
The more you hurt....'
I like how you did that part. It realy made the poem. It flowed very well and was really cool.
