A Rose for You

Fína Elara 🌙 Petra Patrice

A Rose for You

 

Dear Future Husband,
I am like a rose —
I have thorns.
I grow when you water me daily.
I’m not perfect,
for once I am picked…
that is it.

    A fair warning and full disclosure given in a poem. Loved it

  • Tristan Robert Lange

    Petra, this is honest and sharp. You frame love as growth...needing daily care, carrying both beauty and defense. That final turn, once picked it’s done, refuses sentimentality and makes the metaphor ring true. It’s not about perfection, but about respect for what’s alive. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

    None of us are perfect Petra but once we have found the love of our lives, as I have done, that love cures all.
