i am a rose
how unfortunate
my surroundings
are going to mark my death
the lies and deception
of my owner
are too much to handle
what am i being fed
this is not what i ordered
where is my truth and innocence
this is an evil brew
i cannot take this
i can't feed myself
the food is fake
while all the other roses in the garden
are being fed well twice a day
why me
what did i do to reach this status
of someone so beautiful
yet so mistreated
my petals are wilting
but they say it's my aura
that i've been like this forever
and it's just normal
the other rose cried for me
was that without meaning
i could've sworn it was a gesture
of some kind of sweet feeling
and my owner winced at my look
because i hooked into their fingers
with my thorns
now we're both hurt
my beauty
must be unsettling
to see my petals change colour
every other second
i wish i were like the other roses
be as pretty as them
maybe then i'd be chosen
not left to the dead
