A rose tattoo
A dark red tattoo
She wore it in a place
Where no one ever knew
Love was too deep
A mystery
She met him only
That once
But loved him
Eternally
A rose tattoo
A violent red hue
A sign of love
A promise she
Committed to
It was her pride
It was her lifelong pain
She swore she never
Love again
One summer day
When days were young
She gave her heart
Beneath the summer sun
Passions ran free
Her heart flew
High and far
Falling too close
To her fiery sea
A rose tattoo
A dark red tattoo
She searched for him
Who wore the same red rose tattoo
He's about to love
Faded into the wind
But she would love him
Eternally
One summer day
When days were young
She gave her heart
Beneath the summer sun
Passions ran free
Her heart flew
High and far
Falling too close
To her fiery sea
A rose tattoo
A dark red tattoo
She searched for him
Who wore the same red rose tattoo
He's about to love
Faded into the wind
But she would love him
Eternally
