Never To Be A Beautiful Rose

Folder: 
June 2002 Poetry

In a garden of roses,

I’m the one never picked.

No one wants,

an ugly rose.

A rose is supposed to be beautiful.

People find themselves asking,

what happened to that one?

I started like any another rose,

but grew with wilted petals,

and large, painful thorns.

In a garden of roses,

I’m the one,

that’s never picked,

just left to die.
