Roses

by goot   Nov 19, 2004


Life is like a rose.
A bud is born.
It blossoms.
It has its prime and beauty.
Sometimes is it plucked and dies prematurely.
eventually it will wither and die.
Life is fragile.

Through the eyes of innocence did i see such a world,
Of beauty.
Never did a rose smell as sweet as when standing proud and tall in its prime.
As a rose, plucked in its prime, hangs limp and dries, not only does its beauty fade.
But the scent of glory, of pride, of beauty.
The scent is drowned by a bitter, sour smell.
The smell of death.
So blunt. So hideous.
