Paper Roses

By XxnecovesperxX

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Thou told me once would love me until the last flower expired.Ere handed me a bouquet of red roses,At its hub, the paper rose stood proudly tall.I reckoned that thou would never absent thyself in my heart.The paper rose symbolized eternity for me, For n'ered it whither'd be.At length, I had realized thy deluded plot.And, that the paper rose embodied mere artificiality.Forewarn thy love to what thou truly meanst.Wouldst I esteem thee n'er be ill-treated.Didst thou rise or didst I fall?Or didst thou n'er love me at all?paper roses have two meanings: 1.)forevers or 2.)cheap, inauthentic substitute, a mere imitation. just make sure which one you mean.
