Wilting Rose

Bleak and broken,

Devoid of emotion or feeling,

A beautiful rose,

Crumbling to pieces.

*

Tough and strong

Though weak from her tears,

A wonderful rose,

trembling with fear.

*

Alone and shamed,

Afraid to see her beauty so bright,

A radiant rose,

Blind to the light.

*

Loving and kind,

She has much for the world to hold.

A wilting rose,

Living in a life far too cold.
