that leaves your soul to bleed

Some say love it is a hunger

an endless aching need

and you it's only seed

that never learns to dance

It's the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance

It's the one who won't be taken

and the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live

becomes the rose
