Dumpster Rose

Toxic concrete

Desperation's jungle

Wrapped around throats

　

Full of cracks

And broken things

Hopeless and s**t

　however

So every so often

Up comes a rose

Perfectly grown

　perfect

Among chaos

Despite cracks

The broken things

Those desperate minds

And toxic hard things

   survival　

Suffering

   to survive

And up came this rose

Perfect among chaos

Beautiful in any venue

　in any language

Perfect and exposed

Admired but left alone

   respected beauty　

Because old friend....

Every so often

When it's hope

That every so often

Grows where it shouldn't

It breeds more

  inside

It shows beauty

And a message

   that says

Every so often

Anything is possible

That everything can be beautiful

Even all that is ugly

Can become all that was ugly

So we can be beautiful

     objectively

     together

Knowing no shame

Fearless and finding...

Happening

Hopefully

     upon the lost of us

To find the best in us

I do like to surprise people. One of my only redeeming qualities is the ability to bounce between cynical a*****e and hopeful romantic. Thanks lady doll... appreciate the friendly words.
