a flower on the walls

a wallflower with a rose
but it will only be a dream
for he is rooted deep within
walls of sticks and pins

how does one uproot itself
from all the pain and longing
when all the rains and sunshine
can't take away the hurting

his moments died like withered leaves
the bees have stood sole witness
some tried to bloom the flower
while most have whispered whispers

"it could be that he never will
come close to what he chose
as walls of broken sticks and pins
is never for a rose"
