I handed you a single rose
as I looked into your eyes
I told you that my heart was yours
until the end of time
A single rose with petals black
dark as middest night
against pale skin, contrasting hard
a wonderful sight
Your gentle eyes, aflame of green
stir me to the core
your loving smile, sooths deep within
I couldn't ask for more
A single rose, is all I have
to show you that i'm yours
and time and tide, should you say yes
will bring you so much more
