The Rose - By Josh Elwartowski

[darkhero2222]

In a garden full of dead flowers
A single rose blooms
It turns a deeper red when you look at it
And if you notice, it cries only blood

The rose falls under the grace of god
And still it fights towards the light
Despite the darkness swallowing it whole
The rose can't be broken apart

In beauty's death, comes the form
Shadows of children faint and swarm
Laughter and tears, warmth and cold
Nothing can stop the heart of the rose
