Ashes of a Pink Rose

Hot flames ignite from passion it burned the rose and uk

Ashes of a Pink Rose

A pink rose opened soft and warm

it held my heart against the storm

your touch was gentle your breath was near

a whisper sweet for me to hear

The petals glowed with secret fire

they fed my soul they lit desire

your eyes were deep your hands were mine

I drank your love like sacred wine

The night was long the world stood still

a fever burned against my will

your mouth was heat your words were flame

I lost myself I bore the name

The rose grew pink with every kiss

I thought of nothing only this

your arms around me fierce and tight

a blaze that kept away the night

But smoke will rise when fire runs wild

the rose once tender turned defiled

the thorns grew sharp they cut my skin

a warning hid so deep within

Your voice grew cold your eyes grew black

the fire turned and would not slack

the rose that bloomed in love and trust

fell broken down to ash and dust

I felt the burn I felt the sting

the ruin of a fragile thing

the love we lit became a pyre

a rose destroyed by raging fire

No petals left no gentle grace

only the hatred in your face

the garden scorched the promise dead

a pink rose burned to ash instead
