A Rose For A Lost Love

Oh, my love, where have you gone?

Left me with memories of our song,

The fragrance of your smile still lingers,

Like a rose in my heart that forever fingers.

The petals of your laughter still bloom,

In my mind, a sweet, eternal perfume,

The thorns of your absence, sharp and cruel,

A constant reminder of what once was true.

The winds of time may blow and shift,

But my love, my heart will never drift,

For you, my love, are a rose in bloom,

Etched forever in my heart, a memory to resume.

Though you are gone, your beauty endures,

A treasure, a love that always assures,

A rose for a lost love, a flower in my soul,

A symbol of what once was, now forever whole.
