Match

Empty rose

When I met my match, it was a sudden spark
We were drawn together, like fire and wood
There's no denying, we look quite good
Together we blaze, a brilliant light
A perfect match, made for each other


***

It all started with a sight
That spiralled out of control
Before we knew it, 
We were trapped


We were two birds 
Nesting in a rose garden
Everything was perfect
Until the day all fell apart


But you came back to me
And gave me a rose
Like symbol of everything 
we'd been through


We'll never be perfect
Though as long as we try
We're these two birds 
In the garden


***

Can roses symbolise our love?
Ruby and beautiful,
Always present in a moment,
Bringing joy to our hearts,
But thorns also prick and cause pain,
Yet we still love all the same.


***

When I am with you 
I feel like a rose in full bloom 
Our love grows and flourishes 
Just like an eagle soars in the sky 


Together we are strong and powerful 
We can overcome any obstacles 
Our love is unbreakable and pure 


I will always love you my dear 
You are the rose among all the thorns


***

There once was a love so divine,
we swore we'd never forget.
Then came thorns and roses,
and things started to go awry.


We argued and fought,
and the love started to fade.
But in the midst of the darkness,
a ray of hope appeared.


Forgiveness bloomed,
and our love was renewed.
Though the thorns still remain,
we know we can get through anything,
because our love is true.


***


When we first met, 
I knew we'd be great 
I just had to be patient and wait 
You're always so kind and so sweet 


With you, I can never be beat 
I love the smell of your perfume 
It always makes me feel in the mood 
When we're together, I feel complete 


I just can't imagine being without you, 
Sweetheart, you're the rose
That I've been waiting for
The one that I will always adore
No matter what life throws our way
I will always love you, my rose


***

Whenever I'am exhausted 
and empty inside. 
I search inspiration 
and find it in the rose, 
so beautiful and perfect.
