The world is like a rose
Bright and charming was its beauty
Releasing a sweet aroma
Simply loving the world was it duty
But then a breeze arises, a petal drifts away
Off to wander the real world
Away from its lovely plot of land
Dancing and spinning, away its hurled
With every gust, a petal flies away
The rose sways with the raging sky
ripped apart, piece by piece
Peace was naught but a lie
The last one leaves, the rose is bare
Its beauty never to return
All that's left are sharp thorns
That watch as the world burns
The thorns prick all who pass
Showering the world with anger and hate
Until it finally withers and dies
Succumbing to its fate
A/N:
There once was a time where beauty reigned
But now all we feel is anger and pain
Peace ✌🏽
