Description There is a rose
One thousand
Rich crimson petals
Nine Hundred and Ninety-Nine
Thick sharp thorns
One petal for every love
One thorn for every parting
This rose is mine
This rose is yours
One less thorn
Than petal it has
So true love will come
One day
And stay

What form of poetry was this? It's on the tip of my tongue, but I can't seem to nab it! >.<

This was yet another true poem that, again, really spoke to me. Your poetry seems to do that a lot. And this one is true too, and seems to give an important message out for those of us who have had our hearts broken or suffered a break up.

It's too bad that in my case it doesn't apply in quite the same manner.

I was writing in free verse again. And, yet again, using symbols. I don't think you could call it an allegory.

Thanks n.n

Well, situations are different for each of us.
