Roses and Tulips

Rosita De Rose

Roses and tulips lined the path
I walked,
when an intruder appeared
with a stone.

I refused,
but
"You will fail without it,"
he insisted.

I believed him
and gave my all.

It bored into my hands;
I endured.
It scarred my face;
I persisted.
Now, it corrodes my soul.

I run to you,
O Lord.
Lead this weary soul
seeking your refuge.
