Sinful Roses

A rose early to bloom has no thorns,

It is weak to the world and must survive

Where those with defenses stand strong.

Forced early into color it shows up weak,

A pale fragile thing amongst reds.

Pink amongst the vibrancy of life.

You forced me to bloom before my time,

And now I battle in a world that I should not be in.

Sinful of you, to throw me amongst the roses.

Here I battle for my life

Gaining scratches and wishing to be a bloom.

To once again return to where I was,

Before you forced me into life.

A rose early to bloom is surrounded by woe.

It is beautiful in it's fragility,

And when the roses begin to wither,

It is always the first one to go.
