A white rose
Beautiful on its own
So easy to stain
Its damages are plain

It's gone through life
Suffered its strife
Still it stands strong
Flows freely like a song

The author's comments:
I used to idea of a white rose to show that you are strong enough to continue on. Just like the rose, you have suffered through terrible things, you are stained. But you can still stand strong and continue to live your life.
