Dirty Flower

Hmm just felt like writing.

A lonely one
that keeps to herself
talks to no one
but its by choice
I may not be the prettiest flower
But I am me
I admit I've got some
Dirt on me
But its because of scars
That have yet
To be mended
Time,
Time you can't reset
Things you can't
Take back
A dirty flower
Sits alone
Waiting to be
Washed away
Of the pain

I know this is really different for me but just wanted to know your opinion. Thanks if you review.

Scars are the adornments we bring to the table, to the negotiation, the bedroom. They speak of experience, wisdom, and self-acceptance. Who doesn't have a few? Would you trust them? And then there is the rain...you bring up very intimate threads....

Along with the pain there's a lot of beauty I see hidden in your words. One thing only I would suggest...could you try to replace 'dirty' by another word more appropriate for flower? Like...say...'soiled' Otherwise leave it just as it is...its just beautiful..

[Tasha]

Thank you very much for the review and suggestion. I agree with you...I should come up with a better word. Thanks again!

I think this was really good. It flowed well and got your emotions and point across. Keep writing!
