the final rose ♥

I saw the universe when I saw your beauty,

Mistakenly I plucked you from your stem when I shouldn't have,

Pricked by your thorns I bled and hesitated briefly, but I did not stop..

I gave you all my love but that is not what you needed,

Just in water I kept you but that was not enough for you to live,

As you faded slowly I faded too, losing myself in the grief that I caused.

It took so little time to love you, to yearn your scent.. how can this be?

Dry red rose bloom can you ever come back?

Hear the sound of my plea, I need you!

There is no law in the matters of the heart, with you my heart yearns to be;

If you leave please take me with you for you are the final rose for me.
