Rose 

I was lost before. My heart was a compass searching for you. But it never stayed still; it never took a pause to breathe. Leading me to the woods. Where we sat side by side and watched the fire breathe. Where we talked about everything and nothing. Where our souls found the other and held on to that warmth.

Leading me to the park. Where we walked, shoulders and hands brushing against the other. Where our secret glances made our cheeks set on fire and your lips curve, revealing your doting smile. Where I stared at you in awe. Unable to believe you were mine to keep.

Leading me to the garden. Where you lay peacefully underneath. Where one blushing rose lay where your hands would be holding it. Where my soul found its warmth again. And as I sat there beside you, I came to realize I was never lost. My soul and mind stayed with you here because soul mates never die.
