The inspiration in a rose

August 1, 2008

We live for the happiness,

which only brings pain,

for happiness is mearly a temptation,

which can't be contained,

the smile means nothing,

but that you've made it another day,

the laugh is only temporary,

meaning you'll simply be okay,

living is never easy,

you'll always have something to lose,

so many risks to take,

so many chances to choose.

Questions to ask,

Mistakes to make,

Lives to change,

Hearts to break,

Petals to fall,

Glass to shatter,

This mistake of waiting,

And now nothing matters.

I was in Oregon when i got the inspiration for this and i was majorly fretting over a boy that didn't care much for me. But after i drew a rather sloppy rose i thought of them.
