It looks so strong, it's stem so thick,
I gaze at it in admiration, in amazement, in awe,
never content with what I have, i'm always wanting more,
But when I try to claim it, and pick it as my own,
It only ends up dying, leaving me all alone,
I want it so badly, So I hold it close, so tight,But it's thorns make me bleed and nothing turns out right,
I shower it with affection, I give it some rain,
but only in return do I recieve excrusciating pain
I don't get it, you see, I don't know why I havent won,
I'll do anything to change for this time I know you are the one,
Its amazing to watch, as it represents something true,
That's why I want a rose, just one rose, for me and for you.
