"Bloodred Rose"

A bloodred rose
of hurt and pain
thick with thorns
of ill-got gain

Petals glaring
darkest red
waiting and hungering
Not yet fed

A bloodred rose
of hurt and pain
bound by blood
bound by chains

Anguished eyes
Sick at thought
Forlorn cries
Bleeding heart

A bloodred rose
of hurt and pain
Form high and low
A witches bane

A blooming flower
A withered soul
A heart turned sour
Now no more

A bloodred rose
of blackest hate
Now is known
but all to late

Though some of the imagery didn't work in the context of a rose, I like what you were trying to do here. Frankly, I'm just glad poets are writing in this forum, too.

So thanks for that. And check the title.
