Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Sugar is sweet,
And perhaps so are you,
But the roses have wilted,
The violets are dead,
The sugar bowls are empty,
And your wrists are stained red,
The sun isn't shining,
The sky isn't clear,
There's no silver lining,
Because you're no longer here,
Rain keeps on pouring,
There's no end in sight,
You're laying there frozen,
So far from the light,
Your beauty's unreal,
Your smile the sun,
But time can't be turned,
Nor your actions undone,
The words that you wrote that only I read,
"I love you so much, please don't cry when I'm dead."
A bond that we formed,
A love that ran deep,
A pain that we shared,
A friend I could keep,
I wanted to hold you,
Wipe the tears from your eyes,
Been there from the moment you said goodbye,
I want to forget but most times I don't,
I want to let go, but I know I won't,
Tears on my face,
Memories burned in my head,
The roses have wilted,
The violets are dead.
