Rhymes of the Heart

Red Rose

I gave to her a red rose
for the happiness it brings
you can say so much with flowers
they symbolize so many things

Can they put back all the pieces
of two hearts and let them mend
can they maneuver a storm filled night
throwing caution to the wind

Can they rescue the lost loves
of two souls when they collide
can they eradicate foolish pride
at least help it to subside

I saw the way your face lit up
when I gave to you the rose
will that feeling last a lifetime
I guess no one really knows

Sometimes I have to wander
are these feelings based on lies
and will our love still be there
when the rose fades and dies
