To Rose

The perfumed fragrance of your petals descend upon me
A message whispered amongst the night
Silver eyes beam upon your face and you shine in all purity

Open your body to me, bloom in all that is beauty.
Kiss me once with your lips..
Even twice my dear scarlett.
Color my world as you are an image that screams of love.

Love.. An illusion until I held you
Beneath are the thorns that would keep me at bay, yet I hold on bearing the cuts from your defenders
Rubbing endlessly against your shield

I am a being of obsession
Obsessions obsession
Romances romance
Dreams dream
Loves love

Grate my body and I will hold on still
Forevers forever
My Rose.. My treasure.
