The Rose ...

This song has so much wisdom and I posted it to remind us to take a step forward even though we are afraid so we can truly live life alive

Some say love, it is a river

That drowns the tender reed

Some say love, it is a razor

That leaves your soul to bleed

Some say love, it is a hunger

An endless aching need

I say love, it is a flower

And you, its only seed

It's the heart afraid of breaking ...That never learns to dance

It's the dream afraid of waking ...That never takes the chance

It's the one who won't be taking ... Who cannot seem to give

And the soul, afraid of dying

That never learns to live

When the night has been too lonely, And the road has been too long, And you think that love is only, For the lucky and the strong

Just remember in the winter

Far beneath the bitter snows

Lies the seed that with the sun's love ... In the spring becomes the rose 🎶
