Roses are red

Roses are red
A sweet rhyme - but you spurned it
I gave you my love
- but you never returned it

Roses are red

Roses are red
Yes, the cliches are true
You can win her with chocolate
But she might not love you

Roses are red

Roses are red
And I can't buy you twelve
But would you be interested
In my love, and myself?

Roses are red

Roses are red
Wormwood is grey
I feel so alone
When you go away

Roses are red
Wormwood is bitter
When love is so hard
Perhaps I should reconsider

Roses are red

Roses are red
And they wrap a dozen in plastic
You watch them shrivel and die
So tell me how that's romantic?

Roses are red

Roses are red
Violets are blue
You chose me as your Valentine
But I didn't choose you

February 14th - explanation

A selection of Valentines to follow, aimed at no-one in particular.

Mainly because I was given a new notebook, it was February, and it seemed like a good combination.

They are all based on the 'Roses are red' rhyme.
