A Rose Above the Cement ( I Am That Rose)

I've always been one who struggles in life have often been associated and often times been frustrated by the causes of life. Cause's I choose to alleviate in my mind, but my addiction made me realize I was running out of time. "I am that rose", had obstacle's to climb, obstacle's I tried to work out on my own, but the quided rays of Sunlight beaming through the cement of life, suddently I realize. I was not along. A rose planted by the wayside, a throw-off of family and friends. A rose certainly to blossum, people's places and things and again I would Sin. One day could find one, sober and clean, or someday when you're not feeling worthy of all your ob- stacle's could find one "stuck down on the beam". I am that rose, triumphanily joy has come, gotten through the cement, gotten with joy & pain. Now a rose above the cement, standing on power not my own? A rose above the obstacle's, all one now need, is rain... P.S...."Rain is a cleansing, Blessing from God"!!!!....
