A Thorn's Innocence

Skies perhaps would unify
As visions of the storm
Yet none will ever clarify
The calmness of the thorn

Wherever thorns will grow as sharp
As scars beyond contempt
The truth remains to guard the fact
That hurt was never meant

Difference might find itself
Where innocence is grey
And purity is seen as lust
For ending to the day

An upward spiral - beauty's face
Since eyes began to blister
To throw away will not replace
The waste within the twister

    I like this - all except the last stanza where the blister/twister is not my favourite. But phrases such as: the calmness within the thorn is amazing

    well done
