The intense blood red color
Of a lonely rose,
Made my mind blurr
And my heart just froze.
Wandering I was
When I saw her charm,
Lying in between the grass
Stuck in the ground.
I could see her desperation
To get up and leave,
So much frustration
Time stopped unknowingly.
Her dry leaves
Begging for water,
Hope would decrease
But I couldn't help her.
She's been cursed or spelled
And if it will remain,
I couldn't really tell
If it will ever rain.
She was ever so lonely
Living a slow death,
As much as I felt sympathy
I couldn't help.
Some more time she'll be
She won't last much,
I am tempted to see
But not allowed to touch.
