Struggles
Her rose that once was in full bloom
Is now doomed
The petals fall off one at a time
I don’t think ya’ll feel me in this rhyme
It continues to rain
But life cannot be maintained
She struggles to keep afloat
But sinks like a broken boat
Everything that makes her withers away
And she is left astray
Confused and nowhere to turn
She falls to her knees and prays for help to learn
She sees the light
And knows she must continue to fight
Her life will be redeemed
All she has to do is remain serene
Keep her faith, be strong
And before long
Next season will be here
Continue to have no fear
Her rose will once again grow
As she gets back into her flow
The sun will shine upon her rose
As she remains on her toes
The storm has now passed
Now look how much greener is the grass
The rose is strong and alive
And will continue to thrive
