A Flower of Shame

Missing image
A flower so beautiful,
must endure
a life time full of pain.
Carrying the thorns,
where ever she goes.
She protects her self,
fear of people getting too close,
Just like a heart with a gate.
She fends herself off,
by her pointy swords
determined not to fail.
She will never surrender.
