Golden Roses

Contributed by Essentially9 on Sunday, 22nd May 2005 @ 08:19:38 PM in AEST
Topic: oops



Golden Roses

The skies are painted gray,
And the roses are glistening white.
The thorns induce the greatest pain
With blackness fading into night.

You kiss with the reddest lips,
And they are as poisonous
As the first moments of bliss
Ever felt by a heart that was

Frozen with cold compassion
From the acidic precipitation.
I wasn't willing to give in,
But you still think that when

My tears fell
They were for the happiness felt.
When I felt nothing, but hate
For the death that shall take

Me unwilling for the intimacy
Of the white rose's beauty.

This is what I would call an abstract poem, which is something that I admire in your work. However, I don't always understand it. It appears to me to be about pain and loss; and perhaps a toxic relationship?

Impressive write, Jen

Will
