I have told you everything
Never have I spoke a lie
Now I watch as my truths
Make it all go awry
Everything I worked for
Whithers to die
The pedals of this flower
Now crisp with death
Crumble in my fist
As I draw a last breath
Your lies were the drought
That ate it alive
My love was the water
As it tried to survive
The ground around us
Now cracked and dried
I attempted to MAKE you love me
I should have never tried
Along with those feelings for you
That I hold inside
Love's Rose has whithered
And now it has died
