Safe wouldn't have been
Deep inside sorrows
If I had lived for one day
Instead for tomorrows.

If I had opened my doors
And shed all those tears
The rainbows colors
Might have lightened my fears.

Instead I walked, fell
And started to crawl
I stayed down there
So I couldn’t fall.

If I didn’t leave
My blood on that thorn
The dream of a rose
Just might have been born.

2006

So true that fear denies us much joy and revelation! But "blood on that thorn", it seems, is the price for being human. But I know your meaning here, as it relates to the previous stanza. And it's a brilliant last four lines, "If I didn't leave/ My blood on that thorn/The dream of a rose/ just might have been born." Truly beautiful...
