Sweet Rose
Years ago, when I was still young,
I was naïve, and unaware,
love was something that I left unsung,
but then I met you, and fell for you, when I dared to enter the lion’s lair.
Before I met you, I was with another,
she was beautiful, like the petals on a rose,
to me, she was more than any sister or brother,
but she treated me just like another one of her daily foes.
Soon after that, heartbreak had consumed me,
betrayal and sorrow filled my heart, like water in a cup,
but meeting you meant I could break free,
and we are now here for each other, to prevent our hearts from acting up.
When you are close to me, I want to stay there,
when you are away from me, you are something I always miss,
even if it just one moment with you, it something I would like to share,
just come close, sweet rose, and give me a kiss.
