Concrete Rose

Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete?

Proving nature's law is wrong it learned to walk without having feet.

Funny it seems, but by keeping its dreams, it learned to breathe fresh air.

Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else ever cared.

Growing from a crack in the side walk is so simple I mean come on... you just started your life literally with a huge step. For some people it takes them about a year and over to actually make their first step on the side walk. Ride their bike. Rollerblade. Run. Skip. Fall. But starting your very first breath your first step into making it into this life. The Rose that started in the crack of the concrete grew to prove everyone wrong, to show people that its not how or where you live its how you make it in your life. Its how you show everyone that you made it from a place that no one ever thought someone could live. It's like living in Antartica, a cold place that you would never expect anyone to live. A vast desert with no water or shelter just sand blowing in the wind. The rose grew on nothing but its own hope, like America finding water on Mars a place just like a desert maybe hoping a life form could live there. It grew on the surroundings it could use. When it rains thats its drinking source. The sun its food source. But how could it grow with no care, no love, no place to keep it safe? In its own little body stem it was trying to show everyone that you don't need help, you don't need no one to hold your hand through life all you need is your own damn self, your own damn confidence and your own damn mind to get you through the shit. It just goes to show everyone comes from a different backround and make it in their own way. When this rose grew it was letting everyone know that "Hey im a little flower and I can make it where no other rose can, and you as big bad ass humans can do it too. I grew to show that no matter where you come from you have a chance. Take your first step, keep your dreams in your heart and your head and get ready to sprout."
