a rose

Joseph Was strange
He always thought he was and this confirmed it
He Looked At the Roses, Yellow With a red Tint.

A Yellow Rose with A red tint Signifies F r i e n d s h i p and F a l l i n g in L o v e.

There was a Knock on the door. He Swiftly Hid the Roses and Opened the door.
As he Walked into the Bus he Spotted his Friend, Best and Only friend, Sat next to another Boy.
The Boy had Sandy Blonde Hair, And Brown Eyes. His Jawline was Perfect, Body was perfect.
He Was Flawless.
And Joseph was Far from that
a Mistake and a Mess.

The Classes Were a Blur, Nothing interesting.
He doodles Roses.

They Keep Falling from his Mouth as the Tears Fall from his eyes.

He Goes Home
Not one word Uttered to anyone

His B e s t f r i e n d Arrives.
he Smiles until he Sees the Sandy haired Boy Behind his Best friend.
A frown
the one that stayed on his face
the Tears that Stained his face.

He doesn't Get it
This best friend will never love him
no matter how hard he Tries.
he is I n n o c e n t
like a Child.
Wandering round the World
Not Careful
or Worried
but Naive.

A Lost puppy, the Runt of the Litter.
the Small one
The one No one wants

The Familiar Feeling of The Roses in his throat.
A Petal

and he runs
