Where it pricks

This was inspired after going through a lovely sinhala blog called  Cinderella's shoe ( http://warnarasi.blogspot.com/blog ) .
So in a sense this is more or less a translation or an adaptation

Where
the mimosa  thorns jab
pain fade in a moment
the bleeding cease even faster
 the skin 

grows over 

and forgets the day

But why 

does 

the soft kiss 

you
placed
on the piercing
so tenderly
after picking out the barbs
so carefully

stay on 

still
and prick me
