a flowering rose stands alone
next to a kindled flame
my heart keeps beat softly
of a song sung only for you
but never did you care for the rose
the fire i kindled on my own
the song would never be a duet
but the heart is always yours
one day i found
the rose had been moved
you stabbed my heart with a rose
the rose is dyeing
the fire still burns for you
and where the blood of my heart rests
a new rose grew
my heart is mended
a rose bud appeared
not for you, for another
your fire still burns
but ours we are building
not alone, together
my blood still cry’s for you
but my love (right now) is another’s

I really do enjoy your writing. But you need to think about something else and use it's power to write as well. Just think about the better things that come your way. Like ME! HA!
