I hold the rose

close to my nose,

and take in the sweet scent.

I hope you meant,

what you said last night.

Or else I might

feel broken tonight.

The petals on the rose

are slowly falling.

Not sticking with its pose.

I hope I don't end up balling

I hope you don't end up calling,

with a drunken state,

telling me everything you hate

slipping my name out,

making my lips curve in a pout

as my heart shatters

thinking your all that matters.

When you look at me,

with sweet serenity

my heart melts,

close to my belt.

Oh how I wish you meant what you said,

when you led

me to your heart,

now a part

of me will never forget,

how you made that bet.
