Roses are red
is living a life through friends really living
you couldnt please yourself so you just kept giving
but it wasnt really a ife at all
holding on, afraid to fall
at one point she had it all
but it ended with just one call
her mother sobbing desperately
it wasnt meant to be
hospital beds so cold and avoided
she wanted so badly to hold on, everything was morbid
she lost all hope when they said terminal
so she poured her heart out, a letter in her journal
the time has come and she's no longer scared
but its hard to let go of the memories you've shared
she has come to grips with her fate
but you got her letter two days too late
"roses are red
violet are blue
by the time this has been read
i will be watching over you"
