Roses are Red

Roses are red Violets are blue The colors are fading Just like my view. Roses are red The sky's turning gray I’m stuck in the silence Of another lost day. Roses are red The thorns pierce so deep I wish I could wake But I’m still half asleep. Roses are red Their fragrance is sweet But it’s hard to enjoy When I’m feeling defeat. Roses are red The petals fall slow Like all of my hopes That I've come to outgrow.
