Roses Are Red

by Samkelisiwe Mthembu

Roses are red
and my mind is already convinced
that at this theme, I’ll meet “the one”,
That particular person who’s only meant for me,
I mean…my Soulmate,
The one to share the journey of “life” with.

Roses are red
and my heart is melting, after seeing your beauty,
After seeing your beauty,
I was assured that you’re mine,
Like clay, you were separated from me
but the right time has come
for us to unite,”for eternity”.

Roses are red
and with that smile of yours
tonight I found the woman of my dreams
my potential wife,
Tonight I’m neither drunk nor high
but I feel myself floating in the clouds,
Do you know why?
Because you give me a high!Roses are red
and with that matching dress of yours
holding you tighter,
I want to caress you,
I want to hold you tighter
as if I’m squeezing out “life” from you,
because I’m your “new life”.

Roses are red
and like flesh I want to be a part of you,
And like your pet, I yearn for your unconditional love,
My love as well as my emotions are not like that of a circus,
that’s why I’ll love you openly,
Like my clothes, I want you to  be known by many.

Roses are red
and my heart is already taken.
