Survival Poem-Brittany

ROSE By Brittany M

It was once beautiful, it had

For a minute, been beauty and that’s all it was.

Yet through the pain, broken heart and broken leaves

It all fell apart in seconds,

Then never thought it was beauty again.

It never blossomed, it never grew, it never knew.

Then when one day when someone tried to pick this rose,

It shied away.

For that someone did not know,

That the rose was dying,

And never let that someone pick it.

So that someone left and left the rose to die.
