You called me Rose Bud when we met
It made me feel secure
My body lie dainty in your arms
But I would soon mature
At first you treated me good
Enjoyed the fragrance of my soul
You treasured me with fondness
As I bloomed to nature's mold
As you tried to peel the petals
You tore my heart into
You tired of a simple rosebud
And wanted someone new
Leaving me alone with petals torn
To wither up and cry
While you search for another rose
I will slowly die
