you are the rose without thorns

the berries without the poison

the winter without the cold

yet unatural, 

because nothing can be beautiful

without its danger.


and in reality, 

the danger is the beauty.

without the danger holding in all that mysteriousness, risk, and regret,

a beautiful thing can be considered a vase.


a vase would be pretty to look at

striking to hold in ones hands and admire from all angles.

but it would never be able to outshine even the wilting flowers placed in the emptyness of it.

never be able to help you in need

or do anything other then be empty and blindlessly beautiful


so strive to be the danger,

be the thorns and the poison and the cold 

and all the things considered dangerous

because beauty in itself

is nothing without it.
