I dreamt I saw a rose in December
her beauty ran deep and true
she beckoned me to come closer
taunting me with her deep red hue

As I steadily approached her
closing the distance between us two
I dreamt I heard a whisper
coming from you

you told me that you need me
you told me that you love me
you told me that you would never
place someone above me

you convinced me things were well
so why do i still dwell
on my past emotions
of how I once felt

the whispers become louder
they convey something deeper
a rose is a rose
but should I still keep her

I dreamt I saw a rose
but is her color red
or a deep midnight black
because to me she's really dead

So cold and unwelcoming
your feelings changed like the seasons
one minute you're compassionate
the next violent for no reason

Violent like a violet
so black yet so blue
I now realize things don't always work out
the way you intend them to

So as I layed dreaming
with mixed emotions of the past
the question of the present is
will this love last?

Will you change color
like you once changed before
please lie and tell me yes
because I can't take this anymore

I dreamt I saw a rose in December
whose thorns had bad intentions
you cheat, you lie and worst of all
you rob me of your affection

I no longer feel connection
but my heart I will suture
with my wounds now healed
I'm looking forward towards the future
