You extend a rose to me, no words said
Its blossom a deep bloody red
Like the scarlet stains on your palm
Pierced by thorns so prickly
Yet you gripped them so tightly
Inviting the stinging harm
A smiling façade you show
A surface of calm
Masking the pain beneath
The physical pain that was obvious with the blood
The emotional anguish that I do not know
I try to loosen your hold
Try to glimpse into the suffering untold
But you stood proud and tall
Determined not to fall
And the rose remain offered, unspoken
Albeit not to be taken
