I handed you a single rose <br />as I looked into your eyes <br />I told you that my heart was yours <br />until the end of time <br /> <br />A single rose with petals black <br />dark as middest night <br />against pale skin, contrasting hard <br />a wonderful sight <br /> <br />Your gentle eyes, aflame of green <br />stir me to the core <br />your loving smile, sooths deep within <br />I couldn't ask for more <br /> <br />A single rose, is all I have <br />to show you that i'm yours <br />and time and tide, should you say yes <br />will bring you so much more <br /> <br />) O(<br /><br />Pagan Wolf<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-valentines-rose/
