A fire ignites within the soul of a rose Eyes are piercing through impenetrable skin Soon the deep secret within is finally revealed The mask of a lover, unrobed and in naked purity Humiliation can cleanse an evil spirit white The unmasked lover can no longer deceive A marksman has found the clear shot to the heart One dash of truth, a pint of reality, and a spoon of gold The old man has now become a neophyte of lies Cries of agonizing dishonor engross the room Curtains of crimson come to a yellow glow The key to attain salvation has been found among the ruins A deceitful soul has become exposed to the masses Atoms separate, falling to the floor with resonance A murderer, found in the dead leaves of dawn “He has taken my lies!” the unmasked man cries Put into a box for further review Now all hopes to obtain glory have faded in deception But he cannot complain because he has done harm Everyone next to him has suffered great defamation Staining their blood, ink black....permanent Feast of friends has finally taken its toll Humanity as once known is now a theory of ash But the rose, oh that wonderful rose Saved thoughts and preserved all good Oh that rose, that wonderful rose...

We will all find a different meaning in your poem. I have my own but it is probably wrong. Keep writing. Joyce |
