“A rose is something beautiful, however a lot of people hate them because they are hard to take care of, and their thorns are painful. If you peel off the pedals, you'll see it starts to die and get all brown. Over time of not being taken care of, it sure will die. Most let it die. The rose needs sun and water to live. I am that rose. I need someone's love and warmth from their heart to make me feel like I'm actually here for a reason. But the thorns are too painful, and where I sit in this room, sunlight doesn't exist.”
