Three Roses

We started off just as friends 
And at first I wasn't sure
But as time passed the looks we shared
I realized there was more

First I gave a white rose
Each petal bright and pure
I realized you were like no friend
That had ever come before

Then came a pink rose
To signify a change
My feelings grew ever more
Yet our friendship still remained

And as I gave a red rose
I confessed my love to you
Love blossomed from the smallest seed
Unknowingly it grew
