Fragile Rose

By Aysha Nourin C M

Drenched in the shadow
of dense spine. Oh...
Thorny bushes!
Thorny bushes surround me,
waiting to pierce their spine
into my soul.

Nature's own protector,
flourishes daily —
thanks to me!
It's stronger than I am,
it swallows the salty ocean
from the pit of my weary face...

They may thrust into me,
one day...
and grow well, nourished
by my rosy blood.

What an endless tide!
Will I be more hurt
than I am now?
