Roses
Roses
Roses are red
Violets are blue
I sent you flowers
To work just to show
My love for you.
I wrote you poetry
And I tried to learn
To dance too.
To make you happy and
Put a smile on your face.
You told me that other
Men never treated you
This way.
With all the compliments
And love that I had displayed
But unfortunately to my
Dismay.
You never had feelings for me
Well at least not in a loving way
But as long as roses still bloom
And God gives me another day.
I will continue to love with my heart
And not turn cold with a heart of
Stone.
I have my regrets but loving
Is not one.
It’s giving my heart to someone
So cold and untrue.
But I’m the bigger man and I
Wish you the best in all you
Do.
God brought you into my life
Not as a blessing but a lesson
To learn from too.
But as long as flowers and roses
Still bloom.
I will continue to love with all
my heart So pure and true.
