Like a small bouquet that does not have any flowers; just thorns.
That is how I see them.
A clump of them, but that do not necessarily contribute much beauty or comfort.
Having to get to know them from the right place or angle,
Because well; thorns hurt you.
Sometimes even thinking if one should get close to them at all.
However, roses have thorns too and everyone seems to like them.
Of course, behind closed doors the thorns are still attached.
Yet, when to the public, they are removed.
So, I guess in a way people do not get to know them truly how they are.
But then again, if offered a bouquet with thorns,
people wouldn’t like or want them either.
So, I guess that is what I could compare them to.
A bouquet with only a couple petals on each stem,
But not the complete flower though.
Yet filled with thorns.
Yet filled with thorns.
