Red Rose

by Ashley Gayle   Mar 14, 2020


You are like a red rose
Covering yourself with many petals and thorns
You are one to look at but not to touch
Why do you hide?
Who do you hide from?
Is it the deafening buzz of society’s criticism?
The swarm of words that seem to suck your soul dry?
I’d like to know your story
For i’m intrigued by your mysterious beauty
