Rose
They tell you you are worth nothing but your beauty, left to set ablazed and in sight
Of that fiery sun who dares lay its gaze on you
That which consumes you from your vibrancy
Whose hands attempt nothing
But to deflower you from your stem
So do hold dearest your pedals
And close up your bud
For straying hands may pluck you
And leave you stripped on the ground
