Rose

There’s a reason I love roses,

And a reason you’re my one

Always within reach of me,

A love that’s never done…

Perfect angel, glossy lips,

I’ll love you forever and a day

If only you promise me one thing,

Swear that you’ll stay.

The look in your eyes again

And the beauty you posses…

Another living statue I know,

Another ghost of the past…

Another love I adore.

You hold my heart in your palm

And it beats a steady beat each day.

If only you knew the reason I left…

You never understood what I have done…

I think you were mad,

But I’m sure you were hurt…

Fingertips touching…

But never holding one

For more than a moment.

I wish I could tell you the reason I left,

And I wish you could know the truth…

But my world and yours never met

And despite that I loved you to death.

Oh darling angel I miss you so much,

Always within reach, but never in touch.
