Roses
July 16, 2015
Someone once told me
The world is a bunch of roses
Gorgeous and understanding
Not wilting
Yet I know that is a lie
Comfort for a blinded child
Nothing more
The world isn't roses
It has darkness
It does not understand
The world serves justice
You are not feed on the silver spoon always
It is a center of pain
But isn't that the way it must remain?
Questions like that are from the narrow-minded
It doesn't have to be that way
But it is
Change the world
Change it so it isn't easy nor hard
Change it so it is fair
Change it so you don't have to remain blind
Change it so it can be a rose
A healthy rose
Not a wilting rose...
Not a wilting rose...
