Description
There are too many songs about red roses.

The untouched silk of nature, when it sprouts without permission
It never wilts in the heart, but draws blood to the touch

Well, you are my lemon tree, darlin', quite an acquired taste
Just an added teaspoon of crystals gives tingles on the tongue

I can taste the bitter in your words my love, but you should know I'm not able to carve initials into a stem of thorns

As long as you give me shade to hide in, I'll catch every leaf that falls
When winter comes, I will lay beside your roots and wait for the sun to arise again,
All the while gazing at frozen rose petals falling, beyond repair
Gradually their tears of mourning will sink back into the earth

When spring wakes up with us, our strength is grown back, branch by branch
I run my fingers over the cracks created throughout, but they are beautiful
And I can feel the breath of your soul exhaling my life from your gentle lips

You have flaws, I can see the cracks, and the rain still falls through you
And you are absolutely perfect to me.
