The Rose

🥀🥀

I was given a lovely Rose one day
I put it in a vase, and kept it by my bedside
Then I watched the Rose as it slowly bloomed, it shined as it opened

It was a beautiful bright red
But beautiful things don't always last
Soon enough the petals turned a shade of brown instead of red

And I watched as the leaves broke down and crumbled up in front of me
And the petals fell to the ground
Until there was just an empty stem with dead leaves.
