Black Rose
I wish I was among the great writers
though my thoughts are like a stunted tree
drinking from dank waters
I reach for the heavens
but am tied to the ground
left toungue tied and listless
The need to express myself fuels me
to fight for tomorrow
when I just want to flee
I feel like a flower stripped
of its petals
withering, wilting
Plucked bare of witty metaphors
and upbeat prose
darkness embraces me
A black rose blooms
with razor sharp thorns
once a weak daisy
I'm now armed
blooming in the night
now if you hurt me I will bite back
though my thoughts are like a stunted tree
drinking from dank waters
I reach for the heavens
but am tied to the ground
left toungue tied and listless
The need to express myself fuels me
to fight for tomorrow
when I just want to flee
I feel like a flower stripped
of its petals
withering, wilting
Plucked bare of witty metaphors
and upbeat prose
darkness embraces me
A black rose blooms
with razor sharp thorns
once a weak daisy
I'm now armed
blooming in the night
now if you hurt me I will bite back
