Red Rose

Red Rose
Given when in love
Maybe even as a symbol of love
But is love what a single rose mean?

Could that read be a terrifing image
Of your lost love?
An image of blood from the 
sharp blade of depression?

Red Rose Red rose
It may force you to see what it wants 
But you
You paint the story behind your rose
