There was a girl in the garden,
She visited everyday
She'd go to the rose bush
And then try to play
Everyday she pricked her finger
A drop of blood would fall
At first I thought it was a mistake,
But it wasn't at all,
The prick had a purpose
no matter how small
For she showed me the beauty in each and every purchase
She played with the roses
Then she'd turn away
And repeat a message
That I still know today
"We can complain that roses have thorns,
or rejoice that thorn bushes have roses"
I still come to the garden,
but the girls disappeared,
I don't know were she's gone to
But haven't seen her in years,
The last time I saw her,
she was all alone,
which isn't not normal
but she left with some tears,
She didn't play with the roses,
didn't let the blood drop,
And lastly,
she didn't turn and stop,
she didn't quote J.K.Morley
For I've learned what she said,
The meaning,
The origin,
And everything else,
I wish it didn't end that way
but sadly it did,
So day and day again
I fallow her routine,
There was a girl in the garden,
She visited everyday
She'd go to the rose bush
And then try to play
Everyday she pricked her finger
A drop of blood would fall
At first I thought it was a mistake,
But it wasn't at all,
The prick had a purpose
no matter how small
For she showed me the beauty in each and every purchase
She played with the roses
Then she'd turn away
And repeat a message
That I still know today
"We can complain that roses have thorns,
or rejoice that thorn bushes have roses"

Hey all!
I know it's been awhile (almost a year I think) and i just wan to say how sorry I am.
I've had writers block since last February, and its sucked!!!!!
I don't know how often I be updating,
I'm going to try at least once a week,
Just wish me well, I've been dealing with A LOT of personal shit, and its really exhausting.
I love you guys so much <3
Thanks for not giving up on me,
All the best,
F.E.Rose
Also would love if you were able to comment! Thats what really keeps me motivated, and hitting the star in the right hand corner would be great too :) Maybe even a fallow?
Please spread the word about my writing <3
