Words She Never Said

Flowers and Thorns

I thought I found a flower in a field of thorns

Found a crown in a game of thrones

Yes that was a reference,

I thought I found truth in a world of pretense 

But flowers attract stings,

Crowns equals assassins,

The truth is harsh,

Gets people behind bars

But sometimes

You lit up those dark times

With just a smile, just a breath

Took me away from the rest

The mess,

But now's the time to confess

You're the flower I can't keep

You don't belong to me

Nor I to you

But life still feels amiss

Without your sweet kiss

Warming me when I'm cold and lonely

Having someone to hold me

Though this loss shakes me to the core

I hope, one day,

We'll find what we're looking for.
