But roses are indeed red. Usually because my wandering hands doubt the keenness of their thorns. Similar to how I doubt the sharpness of my love. Red with passion, then with pain. Still, beautiful.

Violets are Violet, Not Blue.
But roses are indeed red. Usually because my wandering hands doubt the keenness of their thorns. Similar to how I doubt the sharpness of my love. Red with passion, then with pain. Still, beautiful.
In one of my older sketchbooks, I drew a picture of the rose I gave a woman I admired. I later redrew that rose, but it had thorns, and on the back, a sketch of a man who cut his wrists with the short poem "No shield could protect me from your sword," because she practically broke my heart. That's when I found Faith. She... that was an adventure i won't get in to right now. Faith broke me, so I went back to the first girl, with a name too beautiful to mention here. I was so close with her, but, I couldn't follow through. Then I found my lover.
