Roses
Roses pik, soft and sweet
full of life
And the hope
of successful dreams
Roses thorned, black and brown
harming life
And injecting evil with
every stab or poke
The mixed emotions
of gray and red
Deadly, lively
but hidden in beauty
Sweet as summer
dark as the cold
Hidden secrets
trapped from home
The deadly beauty
of this plant
Formed by a wish
for perfection at last.
