Bright Red Rose Poem by Jonathan Majus

Walking back in my dreams
All the memory's we share
Taken back at the seams
What was good and fair

All the same should I expect
for you to love me the way I am

You say I'm not good enough
Calling me out on my bluff
All the things we've been through
And I'm still not enough

I try to explain my action
I guess it was just a distraction
Saying I'm the best guy for you
Was I ever any satisfaction

I was once what you wanted
Dare I even say flaunted
Now I'm ridiculed and taunted
Left feeling empty and haunted

I believed whatever path I chose
You would follow, but now who knows
After all this shows that I was never
The man with the bright red rose
