Cut From the Violet

 

I am cut from the violet

small and soft, frail and pastel

standing alone in a field of weeds

subject to the weathering elements

yet am untouched

 

I am cut from the violet

the storms pound around me

yet I resist

the winds tear at me

yet I am unbending

 

I am cut from the violet

immune to time

watching the stars fade

challenging the conquering darkness

I stand alone in my efforts

 

I am cut from the violet

I am quiet and easily subside

I rise above the evil

and watch destruction

I am untouched

 

I am cut from the violet

I hide my rage and show understanding

my silence is dangerous and devious

I am quick, yet hindered

disguised in innocence

 

I am cut from the violet

I am alone in my way

I am cut from the violet
torn from the butterfly's fragile wing

untouched, rare
