Analysis of roses and lilies
the wind blows in my hair,
as i sit waiting here,
roses and lilies fill the land,
birds singing little lamb,
i wait and wait as you come,
i wait until the days done,
stars glaze as i wait,
but your home with your bae,
being here waiting all day,
to be left by myself once again,
you tell me you love me,
but you really don't show me,
meanest show with these roses and lilies.
