Tamed Flower
By Ereq
Of all the tamed flowers of pleasure
entreating the sun to rise.
There's one that bemocks the very field
from which it resides.
The sweet
aroma, a tempest,
wherein the unenlightened souls tread and die.
How can I handle one as such?
The full
colors a danger.
A warning sign ignored.
I must stay away but it inflames
the passion once cured.
Surrounded
by the essence
of a mesmerizing potion.
I come closer and closer.
I must taste the nectar, until heaven.
Have I pleased the tamed flower?
Or will the thorns ridicule me?
