All Love Bleeds Red

Red are the petals of happy roses, sad roses.  
Emotions, the rose brings to life the last depth.  
Life is a time, just as the life of a rose.  
Stems with thorns.  Thorns with stems.  
When pricked by the rose of love, we all bleed the same.  
Love is a rose.  Roses do hurt.  
Here and there.  
The love dies without compassion and care.  
In the end, we are all left bleeding, scarlet like a rose.
