Hopeless

Hopeless

A Poem by James

A broken rose falls aside the broken man's soul, the petals battered and scuffed

symbolizing his well being

seeing this poor man's state, it thinks how it can undo this tragedy, how it can help this man

It thinks itss too small, too beaten to give this man happiness

for hours it tried to gather a way to make its intentions possible

and when it was about to give out, the man turned his head from his dead-like position  his bloodshot, and dreary eyes turned to see his new company

the broken rose drooped it's head in shame in how it is so helpless

and to it's surprise, the man picks the beaten rose, though to him is the most beautiful thing he's seen

hope seeps through the rose's green veins

the petals heal to an extreme red, relieved of bruises

and as if a healing rain fell on them, all washed clean

the broken man made whole again

bloodshot eyes fade to pearl white of the man, his livelyness reclaimed it's position

the man stands, waiting to take his new found wellness to a new beginning
