An ode to a ‘friend’
Blood-red-thirsty is the rose
that smells so sweet beneath the nose
pricks the finger with all it knows
to drain the life of friends and foes
with age and death it never shows
the blackness which forever grows
by tears (that like the river flows)
inside that blood red thirsty rose

Gut screaming
heart-wrenching
poisonous lies
Truth be told
growing cold
from false love spies
Mistrusting
misleading
stabbed in the eyes
Letting them
win again
can’t break the ties…
