you open yourself to me
you really gave your best
no lies every motion was real
blindly we carried on
friends then lovers
we thought it would never end
but whose to say
tears flooding our hearts
till the love had to be quenched
shutting each other
in the others heart to stay
yet we open the window far enough
only to realize
we're still inside
your just a rose
you put yourself in my position
so i could pick you
i could smell taste and feel
yet your petal still ever lingers in my memory
our imaginary pose
i never get tired of
when will i realize
that it's you
who took the lonliness
and gave something to me
to look forward too
the rest of my life
