He ran after you, but you never looked back.

Didn't even spare a glance to what was behind.

He had your crumpled letter, between his slender fingers.

Along with the fair rose that you oh, so blatantly rejected.

It's scent still dwells in his mind and his soul,

And to this day, I swear, there it lingers.
