I Am a Rose by ~DisguisedAgenda:iconDisguisedAgenda:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Human Nature > Fixed




I am a rose, and I知 a failure at it.
My bloom is not delightfully vibrant.
My petals do not smell lovely and ripe.
I shatter under any fluorescent light.

I am here, but I am invisible as well.
I am a part of an over spoken tale.
People see through my clear shape.
A rose not beautiful is now clich馘.

I do no one any good, for I知 not helpful.
I cannot decorate, for I知 not beautiful.
I have no way to make something of myself
so I sit and rot on this desolate shelf..

I am alone and it will be like this forever.
I知 one piece of trash that is no one痴 treasure.
I will always be ignored then tossed aside
to chip a little more than my worthless pride.

This is how the people who don't fit in would feel.....if they were a rose.

Some people are a lot like Slinkies - They're not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

i rally like the first stanza best. it is such a sad poem for something like a flower, but it represents an outkast so well. sad thinking that beauty is the only thing ppl seek.

:'( It's short, simple, and even though it's about a flower... It fits quite perfectly, really good job

Nice word usage, this is a good poem. I really really like the very first line.

But then again I am only 17. What do I know?

Today, there was a spider on the wall of the bathroom stall I was in. So I said "Bitch! Im using this stall!" then I kicked it's ass.

If I was Mr. T...I'd kick your ass...then rape you.
