The Battle of Pen and the Red Rose



A red blood ink
Marked the unending story
that never been told,
and yet to be forgotten
At the end.

A battle that has no end
Just like a rose.

The red rose conceived out
from beauty wherein the thorns
are its protection against its
greatest destroyer
not the critics but those who
refuse to read the stories that has happen
Once upon a time unhappily ever after.
