Rose

As she stood by, 

pretending not to cry, 

got no one to talk to

her name, Rose

with her stressed look 

her hand, with a book

said "rose, rose by the dawn, 

controlled by sun, like a pawn

the cruel thorns below the stem

as beautiful as la femme"

the problems underneath my mask,

having a fake smile, what a task

for u reading I shall ask

how good is this?
