Red Rose

I'm giving up.

There's a void in my heart.

It aches with emptiness,

I ache with loneliness.

Will you fill that void?

If not, that's okay.

If not, keep walking away.

I have come to terms,

I won't be the prettiest.

I won't be the best.

I'm giving up.

I will quit trying,

Quit all this lying.

Truth is, I'm not okay.

I am not happy and content.

But that's okay.

I'm giving up.
