The Roses That Have Thorns 
a poem

The roses’ smell blew through my window,
I took the silky cover off,
And on the naked part of my body I felt the chill.

I could smell the coffee aroma coming from the kitchen,
It woke me up right away,
I wandered slowly toward the breakfast area,
I saw your silhouette in shade of rays of sunrise.

The morning was marvelous to have the man I love next to me,
Sunrise and sipping slowly coffee on the balcony, we were infinitely happy.
Or maybe just I alone made wrong assumptions that we were both in love.

The aroma of the coffee and your body smell were so attractive I couldn’t resist
I put my hands around your waste,
I touched you slowly down, front, behind
Your stomach muscles were strong and tight
I felt their contraction and squeeze below
I felt your arm under my lingerie
It felt so great: warm and soft…

You kissed my lips and then my ears
You kept on, slowly approaching my neck and chest
My tummy, legs were already shaking from desire
To make love with you right now
I didn’t want to wait or hear your excuses
And then you stopped…

Your words sounded like a sword in the chest
That squeezes everything inside and brings the pain
I felt like my soul started bleeding
The music of my heart was put silent…

You said you had to go and left me standing behind that door
I knew it was going to happen again,
It’s been repetitive so far
It was a only matter of time…

I didn’t want admit from such a big love to almost nothing,
Besides I felt lack of respect, consideration, truth…
And even if I would give you everything I got
I don’t want anyone to hurt my feelings
I’d rather swallow tears,
My throat is full of words but I prefer to stay speechless
I will continue to live even without you…

The miracles won’t happen if one person feels stronger than the other
So I let it go and I will keep the memories of every single moment
That we spent together forever in my heart
This nostalgia brought me a lot of wisdom
And I had an incredible experience with you.
I want to tell you "Thank you and Good bye"

My life continues on and only death will stop me breathing
It’s time for me to go and let your life continue peacefully.
I wish you all the best from now and until the end.
Be happy, healthy, loving, caring to every single person.
We all deserve mutual respect.
