With Loves Comes Heartache.



Hi Everyone,
Your prompt here is " With Love Comes Heartache " as many of you will know that love isn't all a bed of roses, and can often bring more pain and heartache than happiness, I know this feeling too well, and find it very helpful to air my pain through my poetry, so here's hoping you can do the same, and it helps you as well.

    Love is too a bed of roses! With every rose, you have your thorns, but you also have soft petals as well. When you lay your heart down on a bed of real roses, it's bound to get poked by a lot of thorns.
