A red rose and a blue violet, in a vase they bloom
Delicate brush strokes decorate this ceramic artistry
I gently position them on my desk to face the sun
Every drop of luminosity is absorbed into each petal
My hardcovered pink diary is opened on a blank page
Resting on top of it is my heart-printed mechanical pencil
A stuffed bear, the size of my palm, sits near the book
A petite smile is shaped on its furry chocolate face
Inches of my skin are clothe with my dull school uniform
Each long strand of my glistening gold hair freely dances
My lips are of soft ruby and my eyes express fine sapphire
Black leather shoes cushion my feet as I step out my door
Patience is in my mind, but my heart rapidly thumps
Questions of my upcoming acts, create chaos within
Three words of the truth are on the tip of my tongue
Finally, the school's transportation slowly pulls over
Once my shivering body is engulfed by the bus,
My eyes suddenly ignite a spark, seeing his pearly beam
He unplugs his earphones of ocean blue and waves at me
He beckons me to sit with him and converse like everyday
This mouth of mine tries to surpress a growing message
Now, my best friend is more than a mere violet in my vase
But I, the rose, find it difficult to remove my red pigment
This back seat keeps our memories, I hope even for today...
The two flowers wilt in a ceramic vase of streaming cracks
Pages on my diary are torn apart, scribbles on the last one
No longer does a blanket of sunlight warm up my desk
My only wish is to sew the smile back on my stuffed bear
