Why
In the chaos do we still
Persevere, grow,
Amidst the Garden, surrounded
By specious blossoms
A single
Rose, its radiance
Illuminated by the moon as
Ebony envelops,
The promise of the end
Ominously looming in the distance,
A perpetually rising wave
Growing larger,
Larger, building up with each day
Each hour, each moment,
Until it swallows us whole?
