THE SHADOW OF A ROSE~

My bitter heart crumbled upon the frigid earth
An eternity of painful labor grind into dirt
But from the filth of my broken life blooms a single rose
And out of each delicate petal the eerie beauty of my soul glows
The smell of fresh Spring Soil penetrates the air.
All around my budding bloomsweet scents of joy linger here
Although the thorns jutting out of my Fragile stalk cause threats upon the world
Beneath the callous surface I'm just a very lonely girl
Out of the filth of a haunted past beauty breaks hard ground
Where the dense feelings live love is also found
Eyes that only see darkness are immune to the Bright
But Unless you can see the chilling shadows, you'll never see the light.
