The rose starts as seed and then grows into a bush where buds will soon bloom and show their "pretty face" The problem with this is the moment they are picked. They, by humans choice are stripped from their beauty as a bush and put on display...day after day they are looked upon and slowly...they decay. It starts from the that first day and slowly they decay from the inside out until they loose all the beauty they where picked for so they are thrown away. Forgotten. This is the same with the girl in our society today. They are picked in their "prime time", usually 13 and then society looks upon them with such harsh eyes they begin to pick at themselves until they are nothing left. They have been harmed from the inside out and there is no going back. They are withered to the bone. Stop picking our girls so soon, they are not tuly ready to bloom at that age. Society stop acting like you aren't killing them slowly like the rose you put in that pretty blue vase on the shelf. Girls, you are the most beautiful flowers our world has... DON'T let them pull you from you.
