Ribbons and Roses
I've never seen you so beautiful
I'm truly overwhelmed
With that fixed smile on your face
and a touch of blush on your cheeks
I would swear you're happy if I didn't know better
But I must confess that I fancy this dress
well chosen was it for this special occasion
and the scent of pink rose tickles my nose
along with the soft touch of lavender ribbons
A sight such as this leaves me torn and conflicted
uncertain whether to be happy or sad
its your day after all and you look so stunning
so relaxed so alive
its a pleasant change from the usual you
People take pictures and say you look divine
but you prefer baggy jeans and torn clothes
I wonder if they know this
as your here in our sight dressed with ribbons and roses
This is your day so I won't make a scene
just a kiss on your cheeks and I'll wish you the best
then I'll continue my journey and leave you to rest
