A Broken Rose

What happened to Her?

A broken rose

A defective piece of life

But they all insist again, What happened to Her?

She only cries

Does anybody understand?

Author's Note

Not sure about this one...but oh well. Criticism welcome!

Poignant. No one knows who we really are. Human beings are such complex creatures. We only get hints of personality. Just superficial clues. To truly know someone is glorious; and rare. Or am I reading too much into this? I do tend to over-examine things.

straight to the point....a few nice paradoxes in here as well , with broken rose. A rose is generally a beautiful imagery component, but by ''breaking'' it , you lend yourself to a deeper image. also im quite interested to know why her is spelled with a capital letter.was it a typo? , or is it just another way to emphasise a point?good piece.LOVED it

Thank You! With regards to the capital letter in "her" it wasn't a typo. I used it like a name, so obviously the first letter would be capital, but then it could be anybody the reader wants so I used a pronoun. Or however you interpreted it, I mean thats the best part about poetry is open interpretation (in my opinion). Thanks again for the review
