You good
Let's do this
I am like a rose petal
A soft flower in the centre of everything
Beneath the surface
I am all and nothing
A rose which grows from the concrete blocks
A rose that didn't escape the estates
Crack rocks and Rockstar's
Grill doors and neglected spaces
I am like a rose petal soft, delicate and silky
Who rose up its soil, unearthed and bloomed in a unfair system
That rides the winds of eventuality
With its thorns that stem so deep
You can see the skies in me
Fluffy as the clouds I be
I am as beautiful as my scent, my essence
I am a blessing
I am love
I am life
I am alive
I am thankful
I am gratitude
I love you and my love pierces hearts like a gunshot
So don't lie to me
Don't take my kindness for weakness




Because I am as solid as the metal itself
Don't take the piss
