Dead roses, lost love
The roses were red
The violets were blue
The roses are dead
The violets are too
The roses are dead
I had picked for you
My soul has died
My body is breathless too
The roses are dead
My heart is dying too
The roses are black and withered
Why did I fall for you?
The roses were red
My heart is blue
The roses have wilted
So has my love for you
The roses are dead
And every thought of you
The roses were red
Now they lay in the bin next to memories of you

Poetry: Love is gone
by Leah Curtis
I am walking out that door again today
just as I said I was a hundred times before.
All those songs about unrequited love
playing
I thought our love was true
That's how I fell for you
Said you'd always be there
Now, you are not here
I can't see your
Love is gone
But time doesn’t stop, tomorrow will still dawn
We can’t seem to get along
Everything we do together
by Mike Patrick
Alone, solitary, dependent on none.
No one to care, no reason to run.
Freedom of choice and action is mine.
Only myself to
"One-sided Love"
I am not the seed of any evil
I am not going to be dormant For the root of your pride.
I count too
Matter
