A rose thorn draws blood <br />Blood brings with it tears <br />Tears come from the heart <br />The heart I hold is shattered and broken <br />Shattered and breoken causes pain <br />Pain and hurt has made my mind numb <br />Numb is all I feel when i think of love <br />Love has a way of tearing you apart <br />Apart is what caused the pain to come <br />Come is what i call to death <br />Death may help but my love will always be there <br />There over my heart is where there is a rose<br /><br />Sally Minns<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/shattered-rose/
