Hidden Rose
Hidden Rose
An oily black surface
Showing only what others want to see
Fear of being different all too clear
The current too strong
The undertow inescapable
Hidden beneath the surface
A brilliant red rose
Ready to bloom
To show its unique beauty
Desire to slough off strict rules of “in”
To show the world the power of one
Where only inner beauty reigns
No one is judged by the skin their in
