Beware my Love





Beware my Love

~~~~

Like the lonely cactus
In the desert spring
Touch me not
For pain to thee I bring
Step away don't tread on me
One quill will touch your heart
Nevermore will you be free

~~~

My fruit is sweet
So pleasing to the eye
Don't be deceived
On me you can rely
Don't pick the truths
That dwell amongst my thorns
Your soul forever will be torn

~~~

In this desert wasteland
I stand so bold and free
Passers by never step on me
Beware of my sting
It pierces deep and true
Like an arrow to the heart
Starting love anew

~~~

Even what is seen
Is foreboding and benign
Deep inside are treasures
You will surly find
Its not the shields we show
Much to our dismay
Its what lies beneath
Things that we display
Beware my love
