Beauty is a Strawberry

                Beauty is a Strawberry

 

You grip the rose, even though it hurts.

You keep the pain, even though you bleed.

You feel it, because it’s what you want.

You have it, because it’s an image of beauty.

People tell you that ‘Pain is Beauty’,   

       and you believe it.

Because, you believe you have to,

But you don’t.

You can see it through a strawberry.

You can simply watch it drip rubies of pain.

But you don’t have to feel it.

You can taste the blood,

   Of a strawberry.

Because.

Beauty is not pain.

Pain is not beauty.

It is a strawberry.

I like the way you put pain and a strawberry together.
