Romance X A place setting for two A dinner long since gone cold The candles burned out days ago Dead roses keeled over in a vase The fireplace has empty ashes The fire that once promised passion Roses that used to promise romance The bed with it's silken sheets It's promise of sensuality broken She will spend another night in it alone Four broken promises Three plus one more. He never came. She waited so long with such hope in her heart This is the thing called Romance Somebody somewhere is laughing |
