A Roze Like No Other

You have brains in your head, feet in your shoes—

You can steer yourself in any direction you choose.

You're on your own, and you know what you know,

And you are the one who decides where to go.

Nothing’s impossible—because you are possible.

The pain you’ve truly felt has opened you—

To seek true love, to feel what’s real.

For until you've fallen into that deep, silent grief—

As if an angel were cursed and cast into hell

Amongst faceless shadows, echoes of the divine—

You cannot know the strength it takes to rise.

The impenetrable prison is your own mind.

But still—you can stand.

Rise.

Awaken from the nothingness.

Be who you are fated to be.

Out of the fire—

Like molten glass meeting dry ice—

The smoke and steam reveal:

A ROSE like no other.
