I am all thorns

A poem on sex, love and life

I am all thorns
I have grown to save myself
From the likes of you
Yet I keep coming back
Like a fly zooms towards the
Venus flytrap

I never learn my lesson
In contrast, sex with you makes me
Keep coming back
Though every time I end up hurt
My thorns remain blunt
I forget saving myself.
