There is a rose that grows in the night and day, as she awaits for someone to hold her, care for her. One day a young bird comes in, the rose lets him play with her, she doesn't know what is to happen. The bird returns day after day. They last a few months before a thorn grows, the rose, she is tired of the games. The bird induces the last thorn she can take and breaks her where it will take the longest time to heal, her heart. years later, one of the roses friends, a honeybee comes along and sees the rose is hurt. Days go and he desperately tries to care for her, but she doesn't want to let anyone in, she has locked up her heart until the day she feels she is ready for another try.
This is a true story. The rose symbolizes a beautiful, young women who was hurt to the point where she feels afraid of giving her heart to anyone. The bird was the boyfriend that hurt her, and the honeybee is me, one who has loved, but she is so hurt that she is scared to give anyone a chance until she feels ready.
That is so beautiful. Very poetic and sad.
ReplyDeleteOh wow . . . Life truly is the sadest poem of all.
ReplyDeletei hope the honeybee is patient enough to wait until the rose is in full bloom again.
ReplyDeleteJoshua, that is beautiful and you will be the honeybee and you will succeed, Just keep on working everyday. I love you.
ReplyDeleteOh, wow! What powerful insight you have into the heart of the situation.
ReplyDeleteJoshua- What a powerful analogy- your words and descriptions are amazing- I love reading your work.
ReplyDeleteYour post reminded me of so many good songs that I haven't heard in awhile, although some may not seem to apply: "Daughters" by John Mayer, "Every Rose Has Its Thorn", Poison, and the last one escaped me as I was typing.
ReplyDeleteSo true and poetic, and very sad for the person who loves someone like that.
oh my...it reminded me of someone and something....hope the honeybee would patiently wait until the lovely rose is ready to give her heart to anyone again!!!
