A Whiff of Perfume
Lovers choose red roses
To express their undying love,
For their beloved
Who shines like an angel from heaven above.
Life is a Paradise; when we are young,
Life is like an epic film,
That has just begun
It has lots of pages
Not yet known to you,
Will you and your sweetheart
Stay together,
And be forever true?
Like the magnificence of the rose
Will your love fade over time
Or will you always,
Keep your first love in mind.
Memories come flooding back,
Sometimes when your alone
Has your love ever married,
Or is she all alone?
Does she ever think fo you?
And memorise the same,
Or does the perfume, like the rose,
With memories remain?
