A Dead Rose

by SHAWN   Aug 13, 2007


You cut the flower, shed it's thorns.
It stands stiff, with morning dew on the petals.
What is this now? A Dieing Rose.
Give this to your lover, and with the dieing Rose your relationship follows.
For if your love is true and sincere,
plant in her garden a Rose bush.
Care for the plant with her, sher it's fruit.
Now along with the Rose your love will grow.
