a rose on her casket
as i lay the roses on her casket.
consumed by sorrow and pain.
as my tears fall
and my world crashes
into the puddles of rain.
i know that this feeling shall never pass
as my mind races through memories past.
this home we made, i thought would last
i remember the moment, i fell in love.
it all started with a touch, and a glance, a spark of romance
and the world was set for the two of us.
all the laughter, and the tears,
the names in the sand,
as we walked hand in hand
you held me captivated
through all these years.
i can still see all
the joy in your eyes.
at the birth of our daughter.
you looked into my eyes
with such love and pride
and introduced her to her father
as i stood there and cried
now i lay here alone
through every sleepless night
with thoughts of you
i cann see your face
i can still smell your scent
on my pillow case
the taste of your lips
the subtle passion in your eyes
all your love i could never deny
and now this path
i must walk alone
our fairy tale has ended
and our dream is gone
