Miss Rose

A deceitful beauty, veiled in silky


red attire, she lures with her aroma.

Do beware, for courting her is risky;

get too comfortable when you hold her,

and she will prick your heart by surprise.

Concealed behind her sweet disposition,

she'll quickly entangle you in her vines,

degrade you to your decomposition.

What could have caused such a radiant

entity, to grow such callous armor

around her scarlet heart? Adulterant

lovers from her past? Can she still harbor

seeds of her once virtuous blossom?

Or has her old self been wholly forgotten?
