Why does the rose thrive,
in the pale blue tears of the sky?
Why is the loveliest flower
the first to be plucked?
Is the flower naked?
Or are the petals her only dress?
Does mother nature only have a small amount of pastels?
Does God abandon those
who refuse to listen?
Is it the feeling of fear we cower in,
or the idea?
