The Rose”

Cursed from the beginning

Is the tunnel of my life

Anything that’s good

Always leaves with time

Each time unprepared

As it catches me by surprise

And every time I shed

A tear from my eyes

So beautiful to me

Inside and out

You make life sound so sweet

When it seems so loud

You’re essential to me

And the air I breathe

That small gust of wind

That always carries me

You’re the sweet taste of love

That runs through my veins

Bringing colored emotion

On all my rainy days

I’m a body of water

As big as an ocean

But you’re the secret little island

That gives me my emotion

my poetry Ad Stiffler
