I walked through
An endless garden of roses
I wanted to choose the best
The most unique oneI walked, and walked
And saw various roses
With different tones
Individually beautiful
On their ownAs I walk past,
I saw roses
I've already seen–
Pretty, yet ordinaryUntil I saw,
A most special one
It caught my eye
Like nothing ever did
The purest of them allIts charm captured me
Its color represented its soul
Pure and innocent,
Nothing else to look forBut then I thought,
There's thousands more
I not saw
So I continued,
And seekHopelessly walking,
I couldn't find
Anything more than it
Nor anything like itAnd so, I stopped and realized
Indeed, 'twas the best one
That rose left me in awe
Its beauty remained in mind
And so I went back, to where it was—But she was gone.
