Red Rose Turned Black

by Sarah Ashley   Apr 18, 2005


I found a red rose
in my locker one day
I was deep in thought all day
Who could my secret admirer be
I didn't know it was you who liked me
It was to late
when i found out
that it was you
who gave it away
The next day I turned on the news
and there you were
all battered and bruised
Later that day your best friend
came up to me
He told me how much you cared
memory's of you we shared
Now i am here standing six feet above you
I think to myself
If you only knew
how much i cared to
as i lay the rose you gave
on your grave

**please rate & comment**

Please tell me what you think and how i can improve. thank you!
