Like a Rose

Like a rose 
Your heart slowly began to wilt 
First I thought it was because of me 
But then I realized there was never a me 
It was always just her

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Have a blessed day.

The sadness is falling from this wonderful piece as petals from a dead rose. This was so cool. I could feel the emotions in this short but powerful poem.
