Rose and the Rain


There stands a rose, alone in the fields
Awaiting her life's first rain

While vivid memories, from her previous life
Truly drive her insane

She remembers his charm, His undying love
His looks are engraved in her brain

Would he come by? Is he too far?
Or is she on the way to pain?

She shirks from touch, She's withered away
Deadly thorns alone remain

The wind makes her cold, The sun melts her skin
But his thoughts can make her sustain

And then one day, she watches the path
Leading up the rocky terrain

It could only be him, she thinks as she sees
A prince on a horse with rich mane

He gallops to her, surveying her face
While she looks on in dismay

The looks aren't the same, And the charm is nowhere
But she wonders if his love is the same?

He lowers his hand, To take her along
And all she can do is refrain

She looks for a sign, to ensure it's him
And looks heavenwards to complain

As if on cue, the sky changes hue
And down pours her life's first rain

She smiles knowing it's him, And gets on the horse
And off they gallop across the plains
