Love Poem: Watch Out

Watch Out

Beware the rose, though beauty be
With spiny thorns, it cuts, you see
As hand surrounds the prickly stem
It inflicts you pain, until you bleed

As too, in life, we dare not take
That which we should never forsake
Don’t overlook what just might be
Else you might find your heart to break
