Roses In The Dark

by A Phoenyx in Flight   Jan 18, 2008


Blood red petals disguised by
blackness thick as fog.

Forest green stem hidden
in a vase of dark brown.

wilting from the lack of
strength to go on.

abandon to die no
longer able to light up a room.

lifting it's head the roses
struggle to get some light.

But sinks back down and accepts
it's fate of becoming Roses in the dark.

    Well.. it seems like more of a paragraph than a poem, but I really loved your descriptions. I could picture everything perfectly in my mind. I think this is a big metaphor comparing roses to people, but I'm not sure. If it is.. I love it. :]

    Great job.

    Keep writing!
