Black Rose

A Poem by Dante Balintyne

Black Rose

Roses can be beautiful if we stop to look

As the pages of life turn and the chapters pass

We start to relize that in time those pages have written thier own book
The beauty and color in this rose of life at times turns black and thorns show through

The trials of a persons life pass and smiles and tears through the years will flow
This is the story page by page and chapter by chapter of why those thorns grow

If you look close you can start to see the beauty inside

Surrounded by the sharp defense of the loyal thorns that thrive

These trials of life bring us on a roller coaster ride

For those that feel they may have turned black through time

Know that your beauty will forever show through

Know that crying out your pain and reaching out for help is never a crime

Everyone has beauty....some have to search to find it in people. Others like me....see it in every single person on earth.
