Red roses,
Symbol of eternal love?
Or symbol of love lost?
Or even more....
Nature's beauty,
Perfect in its imperfections...

Black roses,
Symbol of death and hate?
Or sorrow and pain?
Or perhaps something else.....
Eteralisim,
What is not,
But what can be.
The dark side of beauty,
Not always evil.

Yellow roses,
Showing freindship and young love?
The beautiful lighter side of life?
Or something different....
The pale stain of sin,
So close to purity,
And yet so far away.

White roses,
Purity,
Truth,
Youth?
Or.....
Light,
Blinding light,
Gaudyness of day.
