roses

(rosa)

because of you my life is like roses

fragile yet strong, heady in large doses

because of you everything is red

so blind, no matter what was said

because of you i begin to dream

a dream full of you from center to seam

because of you the nights become dawns

a fantasy came true, no dark nor browns

because of you i’m eager to wake up

each morning, each day with lilt nonstop

because of you my direction has changed

to cloud nine i go without any complaint

because of you i learned to compromise

no more pride, no more secrets and no more lies

because of you my mood disappears

no more soaked pillows of continuous tears

because of you the emptiness is gone

i smile, i sing, my new life’s just began

because of you i want to go on

and on, and on, till my life is gone.
