A Star Lost Lover

A STAR LOST LOVER Swear I to you the following be true Akin to a year there are many seasons Well if the truth be made known to you I love you for a litany of reasons The way you play this little game Perhaps just to keep me on my toes The very first time I saw you I knew your name And no matter what I dubbed thee “Rose” For none so grand as red amongst green And a bud I wish had bloomed only for me by name I beheld you Rose but would not disturb the scene Because you are glorious and I would not chance the blame I’ve never held your hand because fate is fickle indeed nor have I ever been wrapped by the warmth and comfort of you For thee my royal Rose I would weep and/or bleed And as all star crossed lovers I’d do that which they are forced to do I’d stand afar yet observe and grin at your grace With your loveliness and the graceful way you grow upon the vine I feel blessed when I place a smile on your face And believe me Rose, I weep because you’ll never be mine © 2011...Phreepoetree ~free cee!~
