Distorted Rose

distorted rose in yellow vase
how dare you chastise me 
sure I wilted and lost my integrity
but look at you my withered beast

three d was the olden days my friend
we are mere shells of our vibrancy now
colors oozing out of us as we turn into boxes
distorted, disturbed, undistinguished skeletons

my melodic melodies are dead in the dreams of others
and you are smashed like a beetle 
turning your kaleidoscopic self into another lost opportunity
do not speak of my demise my friend; we are both has beens.
