You

my life
was a weed
till you came
with the knife
and cut me
a rose

"i am out of estrogen and i have a gun"

Food for thought. It's more complex than it appears.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

The rose emerges
From amidst protective thorns
In resplendent bloom

Sometimes the difference between a thornbush and a rose is a bit of pruning by someone who loves the plant and recognized what it can be.

....and it just took me more words to respond, than it took you to write this beauty! You're amazing, sometimes.
