Thorned Black Roses
Painful daggers rape my skin
Drawing blood to the very surface
To gush in crimson streams

One whimsical word haunts me
Trust…

I let my heart be shown completely
Unprotected and visible
Only for thorns of black to be raked across it

I should have known better;
No rose is as sweet as its ill scent.

I like it A LOT! I think it is really good and you should write more to it.

Another triumph for EvolvingWolf, you have completed yet another amazing work! I love the vivid image I get while reading this, and had to read it three times. You leave the reader wanting more, but also give them a piece to chew on:

You made me ask myself: have I ever been deceived in this way. It gives me shivers! Like I said, another triumph, keep of the great work!!
