1: A withered Rose

82 22 50
                                    

Harshly broken!
Painfully smashed!
Cruelly scarred!
An excruciating scathing

Once a blooming flower
Now withered
Her innocence
Corrupted by the red-eyed monster

She screamed
But her voice was not as loud as whispers
She cried
But the walls won't listen

The curtains failed
In their duty to comfort her
The doors refused
To fight for her

No agony
Like being empty
No pain
Like shouting but not being heard

She tried,
really really hard
But they just won't go away
Haunting her being

Slowly, finally
She crumbled
And the last of her crusts
Was swept away by the wind

Had they known
The curtains would have moved
The doors would have been stronger
And the walls would have listened

She would have been justified
The red-eyed monster
Would be destroyed
She knew
She would be rebirthed as a thorn.
