A red outline of a summers sunrise

A violet light of a mid woven night

A black wing raven

A red rose petals seen only by sight.

A breeze running through it petals

Moving like time itself

Then slowly changing color as it welts

Our love was strong but not strong enough

No matter how many vines kept us together

No matter how tough

All it served was a platter of thorns

So many scorned,

leaving marks of memory and desire

The traces lined with fire

Red rose o red rose

Wave your petals upon me

Without it our love would of been scarred and weak.

Red rose o red rose

Your beauty is beyond supreme

Yet beauty is not always what it seems

Red rose o white rose o

black rose o blue

Your petals soon be anew

Our love has shone,

brighter than the sun

Unfinished and undone

Thou taught us that our journey may never end

You'll never know how and you'll never know when

However the petals still started to grow

Becoming stronger and never alone

Sweet rose o sweet rose

Your sweet red petals, your long green stem

If I've never saw you that day, I'd never be with him.
