I saw this beautiful, bright red rose from the distance
I came closer and saw that one of the petals had been ripped off
It was lying on the floor
Like her feelings were hurt
The feelings lay there on the floor damaged
I had to help
I gently lifted the fragile petal and placed it carefully between the other petals
I cared for the rose like caring for a girl with a Broken heart
I carefully observed the rose
My eyes led to the stem where the thorns were
They were like each pain from the past
I touched one thorn, ouch! It stung
I had to get this rose blossoming again
I had to get this girl happy again
I took all the sorrow out
Healing every wound
Helping every thorn
Not realising I had taken all the pain, and now it's stuck with me
The sadness over 10 months consumed me, it ate me alive.
I started to become depressed, but happy knowing she was happy
She was the happiest person alive
And I? I distanced myself from her.
Oh how grateful I am that she is happy right now but so sad that it's not with me.
