The author had a difficult life and he overcame many challenges in his life, so the rose refers to the author himself.
However, the rose also is a symbol of people who have ever faced difficulties that seemed can not be solved in lives and overcame them.
The poor people's regular pattern is not working if people keep their dreams.
no one else ever cared shows that people do not care about what kind of difficulties people experienced, they can only see their achievement.
