a 97 word attempt at a rejected love
I gave you a gift
I put in my entire world
Embellished with a bow
Roses are red, Violets are blue

I put in my heart
Wrapped in a thousand kisses
To stop it bleeding
Roses are red, Violets are blue

I put in my soul
Wrapped in passionate love poems
To stop it tearing
Roses are red, Violets are blue

I put in my body
Wrapped in delicate negligee
To stop it breaking
Roses are red, Violets are blue

You saw drunken kisses
And adolescent rhyme
And frayed clothe only
R-r-r-roses are red, Violets are blue
