There’s a rose on the windowsill
Swaddled in a cloak of sunlight
Sometimes curled asleep in a bud
Or crying pink fragrant tears.
They say pain is a necklace of roses,
Everyone wears one --
A necklace of thorns
Clawing at the place where
Part of my heart has gone.
But the fragrance is still here
Lingering like a sweet memory
Though your time was fleeting
The rose still blooms for you.
