A gilded rose under moonbeam’s gaze
Sits and waits for her true love’s embrace
With ever saddening eyes patience abounds so there she stays
With her petals of flaxen satin and lace

While words turn silent, heart-strings continue to play their somber tune
With only one thought flying free nothing forever more will matter
For another day is laid to rest with a gentle kiss from an evanescent moon
As her tears fall at her feet and like glass they shatter

That gilded rose lost in her dreams she sits in a daze
As true love’s whisper flows like a summer’s wind
While the sky changes from warming hues to chilling grays
So it is this dream that enables her to carry on as upon the same breath her love she does send

Her dreams she carries soft and sweet.
As with long sighs she ponders in whole hearted bewilderment
For it is within these realms she feels complete.
Until her love is holding her heart she can never be content

So waiting for the sun she sleeps
For no one can know of her loneliness although her stem is straight her feelings are bent
And inside a cracking heart her love she keeps
As only time can end a rose’s lament

Rose’s Lament

A gilded rose under moonbeam’s gaze
Sits and waits for her true love’s embrace
With ever saddening eyes patience abounds so there she stays
With her petals of flaxen satin and lace

While words turn silent, heart-strings continue to play their somber tune
With only one thought flying free nothing forever more will matter
For another day is laid to rest with a gentle kiss from an evanescent moon
As her tears fall at her feet and like glass they shatter

That gilded rose lost in her dreams she sits in a daze
As true love’s whisper flows like a summer’s wind
While the sky changes from warming hues to chilling grays
So it is this dream that enables her to carry on as upon the same breath her love she does send

Her dreams she carries soft and sweet.
As with long sighs she ponders in whole hearted bewilderment
For it is within these realms she feels complete.
Until her love is holding her heart she can never be content

So waiting for the sun she sleeps
For no one can know of her loneliness although her stem is straight her feelings are bent
And inside a cracking heart her love she keeps
As only time can end a rose’s lament
