-truly Yours-

He gave me a rose that has lasted forever
Has never wilted or died for thirst
Petals are still in tack, blood red as ever
Tagged -truly yours-

As my eyes glimpse this rose
Try to remember the times we smiled
Way I'd lose my equilibrium after your kiss
My heart skipping beats when you held me in your arms
Tagged myself -truly yours-

Countless tears I've shed
Believing your lies, you were never going to leave her
Three years of being your secret
Afterwards you spoke the words, "See you later."
Tagged yourself -truly only yours-

My memory fades
Unlike the rose its not lasting forever
Not needing to be quenched
Blood red flows evenly, my heart never misses a beat
Tagged -truly yours never more-

have fun making mistakes, but learn from your regrets, cause nothing lasts forever.
