Even Roses Die
by Lauren T. (Age: 14)
copyright 12-19-2007


Age Rating: 13 to 127

  Even Roses Die
Picture Credits:

Roses croon words of love
Broken hearts mean they'll cry
Love is there, it is real
But even the roses die.

How can it last?
How can he lie?
Love can change.
Even roses die.

Say what you want
You cannot deny
What the truth is
Even roses die.

Kisses don't mean anything
Nor do embraces goodbye
Unless those are sincere
Even roses will die.

Watching things fall
Tears, your lullaby
Things aren't perfect
Even roses die.

Love once lived here
Now there's a red sky
Gardens never last
Even roses die.

Now look at you
You're left to cry
You know its true
Even roses die.

I was going through your library and, for some reason, the title caught my eye. Maybe because roses and I have been friends for a long time. ^^

This was so sad. And not. The not being that the joy was there to begin with and that allowed the rose to die.

The presentation and development wounded me with every stanza. And at the very end, I picked myself up, off the ground, because of the many thorny wounds my poor heart had suffered.

beautiful writing such heartfelt belief in your subject. I love poetry and sometimes it doesn't make sense to me and I get upset not getting it but this I get and I can relate. You write about life a thing everyone goes through and my favorite thing roses. cool

Very good, write. Definitely a favorite. I love the rhymes, and even though some were predictable, they take a different approach. Beautifully written.

Xoxoxo,

Creativity knows no age, a strong voice in this piece, a strong drive, you were able to make my ears stand, feeling more than understanding, a whisper hanging soft on the edge, special this write, enjoyed.. Walt

Ahhh, the temperamental skill of telling a large story in few words has faltered slightly. The repetition of "Even roses die" is very interesting and thought-provoking, but your paragraphs could have been a little longer in some places. You're dealing with the Most-Annoying-Critic-Of-The-Week here, so don't feel bad. If a poem gets past me without at least one thing that distracts from perfection it's a sign of Ragnarok. ^-^

Okay, back on topic! No Norse Mythological rantings for me! Also, despite my big fancy words (I use them to dramatize the situation ^-^) the only two paragraphs that seemed a little off balance were the second and third. Everything went on strong after that.

Overall, I really like the comparison and idea behind this one. Hey, lookie here! Each paragraph is four lines. Maybe I just missed something. XD Anyway, the picture was a nice touch to this one too. Good work!
