Rose Learning Empathy

She grew from the earth, rooted in grace A crimson bloom in a guarded space Her petals were soft, but her thorns were sharp A shield for her tender, untouched heart She watched the world with eyes of gold But didn’t know how love was told Each tear, a drop of morning dew She longed for something she never knew Oh, she’s learning to be human Breaking through the walls she’s made Trading thorns for gentle hands Learning to feel, to understand A fragile rose, finding her place Learning to care in the human race Each thorn she held was fear disguised Each petal fell with every cry She reached for light, though it burned her skin Love was a battle she fought to win Her hands bled red as she touched the pain A rose in the storm, caught in the rain But through the hurt, she found the art Of holding others in her heart Oh, she’s learning to be human Breaking through the walls she’s made Trading thorns for gentle hands Learning to feel, to understand A fragile rose, finding her place Learning to care in the human race The scars on her skin tell a story of change Each mark a reminder of love’s strange pain She gave her heart, though it made her bleed For every soul has a human need Oh, she’s learning to be human Breaking through the walls she’s made Trading thorns for gentle hands Learning to feel, to understand A fragile rose, finding her place Learning to care in the human race Now she blooms, not just to survive But to let the love in her come alive Now she blooms, not just to survive But to let the love in her come alive A rose with petals, soft and free A human heart, her destiny Her journey’s a path with no final end Learning to love, to break, to mend She’s not just surviving; she’s learning to be A fragile rose, a human being (Ser Humana) I’ll still stumble, I’ll still fall But I’ll learn to rise, I’ll learn it all A heart that feels, a soul that yearns Through every tear, a lesson burns End!
