Looking Up and Hoping

Standing here looking upwards hoping and waiting on Rose what's happened I wonder to myself it's snowing heavy my feet feel froze I don't have her mobile number never thought when asking her for date was looking forward to this night not expecting to be here this late This Rose was for a lovely Rose one I hoped to become my flower but looks as if my chance has gone now deep inside I feel real sour How long must I wait looking up? waiting for Rose never to bloom I really need a heat of something warm get hot chocolate to lift my doom Sitting sipping my drink in cafe thinking of what might have been there sitting in the corner is guess who! yes it's Rose my eyes is seeing I was waiting for you I said she replied I've been waiting for you at opposite ends of the street sometimes in life we miss the cue So at least we meet up eventually Rose and I arranged to date again exchange mobile numbers just in case! such complex characters women and men!
