A Rose
A rose is a rose
They come in all shapes and sizes
Colors too
A rose is a rose
A rose is a rose
It can be whatever it wants to be
They say
A rose is a rose
A rose is a rose
But what if it blooms in winter?
Would it be a miracle or unnatural?
A rose is a rose
A rose is a rose
But what if its petals are strange?
Would it still be a rose or just a red daisy?
A rose is a rose
A rose is a rose
But what if its stem is red
And its petals are green?
A rose is a rose
A rose is a rose
Unless they say it's not
Unless its too strange
A rose is a rose
A rose isn't a rose
If it's outside the limits
Of plausible diffrency
A rose isn't a rose
A rose can be a rose?
But when does it stop
The shrinking of lines and barriers
Until a rose isn't a rose unless it perfectly aligns with society's standards
For what a rose should be
So what is a rose?
A rose is a rose
When
It says it's a rose
There is no "perfect"
Just a rose striving to be a rose
That is a rose
A rose
is
a
rose
