The Rose

by Kelly Hamrick - Gemini

Love is like a rose
blooming for a while
Waking up to the sun
and sleeping with the stars
It blooms for a while
then it begins to wilt
The petals fall from the stem
never looking back
One by one they fall
and memories will fade
Once they fall
love is through
and it is time to find a new flower
For just like love
the rose is like people
Sometimes love grows old
Some people keep love forever
and some people wilt away
No matter what
the love people have
can't bloom forever
Eventually it will begin to die
and it will wilt away like a flower

Reason for writing:

    this is how i feel about love right now
