If I Am A Rose

If I am a rose

And you are my love

Take your time love

To open me up

I am delicate

Yet resilient 

Take your time

To see me completely

Breathe in the sweetness

That I am

Feel the warmth

That I am

Savor my layers

Of petaled softness

Give me just enough

To want to thrive

Nurture my nectar

Validate my splendor

If I am a rose

And you are my love

Together, we can blossom

 With each rising sun


Written on a day the rain came with it's thundering companion.
