Rose
To my love
A rose
Given
With a piece
No!
With the whole
Of my embittered heart
That she tore
From me
Alive and beating
And wrapped it
With briar
Emblazoned with thorns
And left it
Ripped and bleeding
Cast aside
Like yesterday's plaything
Discarded
by petulant child
Who
With laughter
Moves to find another toy
To break
Another victim
To ensnare
Another heart
Ah but I do not ask
For its return
I gave it freely
Into your hands
Forever will it be yours
Forever will I be yours
Forever
Will I wait
To my love
I give
This rose
