Petals fall to me feet
So soft
So full of life
Ripped from my core
Through a painful
Year-long fight
Cold
Shaking
Backed in a corner
I gotta fight my way out
I must bloom once more
After rising from ashes
Ashes of who I was
Who I tried to be
But I learned
I cannot remain silent
My icy heart
Has become undone
Ready to fight
Against the pain
Nothing in my way
As this Rose
Has gained thorns
And they're to stay
