Guilty Roses
My roses are blue.
My violets don't exist.
Did I do something wrong?
It's not on my list.
Yet they all say I'm wrong.
That my roses don't belong.
The bad thing is
That I listen to them hiss.
I know what I should do.
And I am doing it wrong.
I really should comply
So where is my song?
Others are mad.
And I am too.
It's for my own benefit
Yet I decide not to do
The simplest little thing
Because it's a nuisance.
I have no compliance.
The charade has to end
But it continues on.
But I still have to fend
Off my mistakes
And change my way
Fore this path I'm taking
Will continue to set me off
The right path everyday.
So my roses are blue
And my violets don't exist.
There's nothing wrong with that.
But I need to raise up my fist.
What I feel is terrible of course.
So I need to have red roses.
And make a new force.
So that my path is more various
And it'll improve.
I'll stop being nefarious
And hopefully I'll sail smooth.
