The Rose Inside My Heart

In the bottom of my heart, there's a rose planted deeply 
She was the same rose that charmed the soul of my memory 
She came and gone so hastily in the pages of my history 
My only consolation is that she passed beautifully 

Though, she's gone long time ago, in my heart she'd always stay 
For, she's my summer and spring, my night and my day 
To have her once more is what I always pray 
That one day she would come and never go away 

One day when time is ripe, when it comes the right season 
I wish that she will come and bring back my prudent reason 
For, without her, I deeply doubt my will and my volition 
In my heart she'll always be my final disposition 

Faithfully, I long that day when we can make a brand new start 
By that time I should make sure that we will never be apart 
For, deep within my heart, she is my greater part 
I will always cherish deeply, the rose inside my heart
