Just like velvet
Feels like a soft blanket
I thought it looked so bright,
The rose, so right....
I never realised
How a rose could hurt?
Until the day
Someone played with my heart...
Whenever I felt alone,
He was there to bring me back to life...
I carried a rose everywhere I went
For I knew he was there
For that little rose to be sent...
Those were the days
When no thorn hurt me...
I used to believe
A rose was still beautiful
Despite those thorns...
I never thought
A day like that would arrive,
For me to live in this world and strive
For the very love I had lost,
Is now only in my past
The scene with him
Still remains in my mind's eye,
I picture him when I look into the sky..
So blue and pale...my heart lies,
Those days passed with goodbyes.
Suddenly, I remember the rose,
It's world crumbled beside the hose..
Now the rose seems
Like a demon in disguise
How could I have been so wise???
To think that a rose can never hurt...
I realise the depth of love
As in the rose's eyes I see him
Now, I cry in despair
When I look at the rose
The thorns seem like thousand knives
Piercing my heart...
I now realise
That a rose can actually hurt..
This rose is the rose of love
