A Rose

A rose. A red rose. It represents love. The feeling of warmth, comfort, happiness and companionship. A rose can represent you lover in all their beauty through its glistening red petals. The feeling one gets when given a rose from their one and only is indescribable. It makes you feel like you are the only one that exists in his world; you above all are number one on his list. He loves you like no other, for who you are. Love above all else is the strongest feeling you could have for someone. The devotion one has for you. Not always can we feel the same indescribable feeling for one and other. There are times when one will love you but, alas, you do not love them. Do not fret. For they should be honored and thankful that love ever so graciously knocked on their door. If love were ever to leave you heart or the heart of your lover, do not cry over this for love can always be found again. Do not try and fix things for if you did, they wouldn't be whole hearted for it would be lost and broken trying to fix a love once lost.

But, if a rose were to wilt and die would it then contradict love, or simply just die? If a rose that your love gave you were to die, does that mean all love is lost? No. If roses were to live-forever and not die you lover would not be able to give you one every once in a while to reassure you of his love for you. When a rose dies it never really dies, it could hang on your wall or be plastic representing his undying love for you.

Love is a magical reassuring feeling that you are wanted in the world. Whether you're loved by friends, family, a husband or wife, whoever it may be, love can make the most unwanted, heartless person feel wanted whether they admit it or not.
