Roses 'N Thorns
Life is a paradox
Of Treasures and of thorns
As my eyes opened to see myself amidst the pain
I began to seek for joy in my imagination
I put my pen to paper
'Tis always a pleasure to treasure
But words struggling for supremacy
That is my thorn
Treasure and Thorns
One can't be without the other
The lesson of life
The reality of being
Life is a gallery of events
Of shows over and over
Tis to make you bow in pride
Or 'Tis to make you cower in pain
Works of art are forever
Beautiful pictures
But hidden shadows
Not a stranger to pain
I know the feeling
I like to think
If I would let the thorns clip my wings
Or If I would rise and ride with the tides
Would I be an art of heroic beauty?
Would I bow from this realm crippled or tripled?
But I choose to Kindle my joy to burn off my pain
Many atimes I stumble
But there I see my roses
I till and toil to take my roses home
Thorns are its ally
Could you seek for roses?
Could you find the treasures?
Would the thorn surely pierce?
But know that tomorrow
Will unfold with the beauty of the roses
My creativity accommodates
Life as not just treasures
I tasted the bitterness of thorns
I looked for sunshine in the clouds
I was bitten by the stinging of the nettle
Love was as a treasure
And the first kiss as of pleasure
But for a love that has gone sour
That is a thorn in the treasure
Seek the treasures in roses
And dare to grasp the beauty of the thorns

Seriously MA, I love this... Please can I have the permission to use some lines and send to my ex
@honourmaus you don't need to ask. Of course permission granted.
And if she is OK, rekindle the flame. Nice people are difficult to come by.
Your ex? 🤔 Why bro? I thought they are ex for a reason 😀
Ex can become *main' at any time. Matters of the heart has a way that none can comprehend.
You are right, stranger things had happened
