This Dead Rose Bush

Views (60) Pain Created on 7-18-07 Flag

As the last peddle falls

This now dead rose bush

once so brilliant

withers

 

withers because you neglected it

dried up and shrivled

from you harsh heat and mistreatment

withers from your abuse

your frost tears the leaves away

stripped of its beauty

This rose bush has become ugly

Just a pile of thorns

No longer does it flourish

Off your sweet nectar that never existed

it withers....

 

months of mistreatment

months of it waiting for a drink

but never given one

you forgot about it

in the back of the closet

of your so called life

dried up it stays

dormant

 

but all roses can be brought back

it just takes some care and love

however you don't seem to have any

for this devistated bush

you laid waist to it

but it still stays

in the back of your mind

in the back of your closet

waiting for an inexistent love

and it will wait forever

even after it can no longer

carry it's own

derXluftbar your poems are unbelivable, i have a lack of words to describe how talented you are!

sirreal (cont.) the inconvenient truth is we are all, "we" being the artists, self-centered. maybe not as obvious as some, but the trait is there. the thing is, i would love to give a fellow artist a compliment however its sincere value would be tarnished by my ever present bias. so the most sincerest thing i could say to a brother is: GODSPEED.
