Thorns

They say that every rose has its thorns.
But everything has it's beauty.
The thorns may hurt,
But they too deserve a chance.

I would miss
The fights I get in,
The drama,
The heartbreak.

I would miss emotion.
I would miss sadness,
For if that didn't exist,

Neither would happiness.

The thorns are the beauty of the rose.

The thorns are part of the beauty of life.
