My Rose

How can I live this life, so dreary,
Without him, my rose, my sanctuary.

Once, he blowed a dandelion in the air,
To wish upon it he didn't dare.

He's a rose; but he'd wish he's not
Oh what little time he got.

Why do some withers so soon?
While others last, and bloom?

He'd wish he was a weed instead,
That will stand the whirling winds

The winds are the most unfair,
They'll sweep him and leave him bare.

Upon that dandelion, he'd like to make a wish,
But he's afraid he's already leashed

To the withering petals of his soul,
He knew that wish wouldn't keep him whole.
