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
