Violets And Roses

Roses are Red,
Violets are blue,
Love is not for everyone,
But is for me and you.
If you weren't here,
I would not know what to do,
Like a helpless monkey,
Trapped in a Guantanamo-like zoo.
Glossy blue eyes,
Perfectly rose-coloured cheeks,
Baby,
These four months have felt like two weeks.
So do not leave,
We have just begun,
And with your soul please don't burn me,
Because from you my heart will never run.
