Rose from the Concrete

Yes

My love is conditional

Whose isn’t?

But maybe

Maybe one day

Agape Love

Will channel through this

Rose in the Concrete

Rose in the Concrete

Rose in the Concrete

The same sentence

Two different meanings

Who deserves our Love?

And who should we give it to?

Love comes from the heart,

Most assuredly

Oh, a feeling that is so deep,

How could it ever be

Broken?

Why does it not hurt to 

Love

When you no longer can?

When all your Love

Continues to overflow

Completely reconstructed and

Augmented to a future

Pleasant memory

How can I?

Why was it so easy to

Bring myself to Love

Again?

I think I’m learning how to

Love

Again

My Love

Is like the Rose

That grew from the garden soil

A picture of beauty

In the midst of 

Prosperity

A source of life

Emanating within

Full 

Blooming petals

The thorns this time around

Lose their stiffness

And dangle like soft

Damp twigs 

On a rain-soaked tree

The barbed wire

Wrapped tightly

Around my beating

Heart

Fell and loosened to

A necklace of adornment

An image of grace

Catching the eye 

Only of the right

One to pick me

Rose from the Concrete

Rose, from the Concrete

Two different meanings

The same sentence
