A Captivating Rose
A Captivating Rose
A rose's petals are tender to touch
The delicate nature is pridefully pure
That blazing beauty entices the eyes
While their thorns may leave you sore
They hold a scent of carnal passion
A deep perfume that dreams of love
They dare reveal their hearts, like fashion
That crimson glow is too beloved
A rose will drive you mad with envy
And transform your mind with greed and sin
They will grasp your heart and soul
As those thorns slowly sink in
