I may not be perfect. But then again, I'm sure someone on the earth feels I am.

The reddest rose,
is in this room,
reminding me,
of Winter's bloom.

The scarlet rose,
teasing me,
with it's beauty,
I wish I could be.

This sad yet delightful rose,
in the little white vase,
throwing tragedies,
into my face.

The simplest rose,
fair and small,
I sit alone,
and that is all.

I wrote this for an English assignment, and my teacher really loved it. It's about how another's beauty can be so taunting, when you think you have none yourself.
