Blood Red Rose

 
She tastes so sweet
A bit bitter too
But that’s what I love about her
She’s so pretty
Especially in red
Dark, blood rose red
She makes me smile
With each taste I take
And with each taste
I desire a sip more
Oh how completely
She makes me burn
And
My head spin around
Especially as her fragrance
Hits my nose
Sending that invigorating beauty
To my core
I can’t help but
Take another drink
Let that slippery
Sweetness run down my throat
Deep inside my stomach
Coating it completely
I gotta have more
Of that sweet greatness

But with this sweetness
Comes a price
She makes me talk
Lies I cannot tell
Once she’s got me under her spell
So forgive me please
If what I say
Isn’t what you’d like to hear

I don’t want anyone waiting on me
Hell, Baby, I’m still waiting on me
But still
I wanna know all about you
I feel like I’ve met you before
Another time, another place
There’s something there
I don’t know what
You’re a flirt, a tease
But so am I
This’ll never work
You are there, and I am here
There’s plenty of beautiful girls everywhere
A catch like you, it won’t be long
Before one snaps you up
And you’re head over heels
I’d be happy for you
You know, of course you don’t
So I just told you so
You’ll make some lovely young lady
One great better half
You’ll sweep her off her feet
And taste her so sweetly
Loving her and forgetting about me
Whether we were friends
Lovers or it was just a Soul Affair


Alone tonight
Just my red wine and I
Maybe a toy or two
To accompany me
As I ponder over you
And sip on my blood red rose

My Merlot
