I am the rose that
grew from the concrete
to the sunlight I blossom
2 {THIS IS THE SECOND VERSE TO THIS POEM}
I see my hopes and courage
in the strength of my petals
with the sunrise, my soul
profusely blossom and rejoice
to the high skies, I rise
they point their fingers at me
and screaming that I am not
the best patch out of all
but I am the beauty of them all
