Rose

Rose

I’m like a rose

I start out in a bud

Then I bloom..

Sometimes the petals may fall

But they seem to grow back

Even stronger and powerful

Where eyes are dropped from the sight

The rose has been
Blown by the wind

Soaked by the rain

And bruised by the dirt

But it always made it through..

Its even more beautiful

And ready to shine

Showing all the rest

That it has not been beaten

It still has fight after the battle

It is scared and terrified

But it will not break

Keep a smile and bloom

Continuing to defeat

I am that rose.

Not bad. I think roses are overused, so maybe a different flower next time.
But pretty nonetheless.

The comparrison of a rose to you is great. It shows you have durability and are ready for everything.
Using something that is normally only symbolic for romance, love, passion, etc... it was inspiring. It would be comparative to using an angel to bring about death.

You are getting symbolisim across really well and emotion pours from the page.

keep getting stronger and more durable, because someone has to.

very eloquent. I loved your symbolism and contrasting view of the rose as something that endures instead of something that is merely romantic. You are quite a special rose, Kylie.

And that rose will surely prosper...for even when the color fades, the beauty still remains.
