My Rose To You
A rose often tells a tale of love and desire -- freely given;
Of yielding to a gentle touch, a sweet kiss, or
a warm embrace;
Of willingly surrendering the whole person to someone
loved;
Of sharing all the gentle secrets of body, mind,
and soul;
Of keeping hearts forever bound by love and adoration;
Of coming together as one body, one mind, one spirit.
A rose sometimes tells a tale of love and desire -- painfully denied;
Of a touch or kiss or embrace that can never be;
Of love for part and not for the whole person;
Of a yearning for each other that is so strong
and yet so painful;
Of being near enough to hear words of love, and
yet so very far away;
Of hearts so far apart but joined by words so dear
and sweet.
But my rose to you tells this tale,
Of my love for you forever;
Of my need to feel your touch;
Of my wanting to feel your lips against mine;
Of my beating heart when you smile at me;
Of my desire as your sweetness overpowers me;
And of my pain in knowing you can never be mine.
