One Red Rose

love left me empty
     this time it is for good
     a gesture one red rose
     alone where he stood

     so cold are my days
     the sun never shines
     the nights are unending
     and sadness is mine

     i remember the days
     when love filled my heart
     now it is empty
     and broken apart 

     one half of my heart
     beats lonely and still
     the other is with you
     asleep in the chill...
