Never To Be A Beautiful ~Rose~

Behind the roses there is me, A flower that's just a seed. A flower never to grow, beautiful .. A gloomy heart behind a faded smile. I wish I felt for once like the rose I dreamed to be, ah.. only to smell as sweet as a purple passion, Or to look as red as blood. Instead I was cursed to be as black as death and to smell steal, and feel misery. Only if I wasn't a waste of your time, then maybe you would be mine. From all these beautiful flowers around you, why would you even consider me? I'm just a stem, a lonely stem....., with out sun light to cover me. I've been through it all, the rain the snow, spring and fall. But you'll never be the one to know, that I'll never grow. So long, I've been shaded on by the leaves above. They have covered me in hell, with the slightest sense of love. To be able to see the sun to be able to stand with the rest of the beauty Only then would I be happy. Only if he stood beneath me. I might grow the petals I crave. Forever ill be the stem in which you've condemned and denied. You've chosen something sweet, and innocent. something I could never be. So forever ill stand the stem with out petals... in pain.. and damned for eternity... Written March 8th, 2002 © on Mar 07 2002 04:24 PM PST, Shelly   0 • 1
