If beautiful were printed from a negative it would have the silhouette of a rose
Because roses are sculpted from the hands of immortality
Breathed from the marble no one saw as a flower
Every petal flaunts the gorgeous of galaxies
Positively Divine
The eyes of roses are as ocean deep as the sky is blue
They see life the way we're supposed to live
Balanced in duality, Life and Death
A marriage with as many anniversaries as time
The two need to become one so fear may bloom into confidence
A rose might be one of the few things to achieve perfection on earth
The way its attraction reflects the heavens
The way it smiles ages like the innocence of a child until its aroma ferments into the wine from 35'
The way it freezes the grave into a Picasso Dali-Esque piece of painted poetry
A rose understands the heartbeat of death and the silence of life in humility
That's why they are used during and after life
Have you ever seen such grace command hell?
Roses make the marble soft, the concrete cry, and anxiety strong
And that is why I say, "you remind me of a rose, an absolute rose."
You are and can be everything you hope to achieve
p.s. it's never too late to sculpt your rose...
