The Lonely Rose

I live in a serene forest
By a winding river
Where a lonely rose grows

Every morning I look at the woods
Longing to walk through them
To discover the hidden terrain

But the lonely rose is so beautiful
A dioramic semblance of eternal truth
That sets the ambiance in my world

I guard this rouge bloom day and night
My fear of its loss is immense
And my longing for the woods is unbounded

But the rose is of the wild
And I am of the wild
We will live close to infinity

I cannot sacrifice my dreams
My hopes will outlast the rose
For one day we both will cease to be
