I stare at my feet
My feet have become roots
Digging into the ground and no wanting to come out
My body sways in the wind like the other trees
My body is paralyzed

My eyes have the courage to look behind
There I see it
Those sharp, bloody claws
Thick, brown fur
Ice cold blue eyes
But with a hint of green
As green as emeralds
There was something in there
Or someone

The Monster bounced
Trying to claw my inside
He slashes through my shirt
I see three ripped lines running across my sleeve
And blood
Running down my arm dripping
The blood drips staining a rose
A white rose that is now red

For a moment in time
The Monster and I stare at the beauty
Now drenched in red
My head turns to look at The Monster
But I see nothing there
Nothing but air

What happened?
Where did he go?
The Monster is gone
I was helpless and yet The Monster did not strike
The beauty and delicacy of a rose
Saved my life
