A dead rose. By Cesar Reyes

I want to give you this dead rose, in hopes that the touch of your warm hands will make it come back to life

I want to give you this dead rose, in hopes that you might smile at it, and in your smile the rose might find new hope even after it's petals have lost their beauty and lust.

I want to give you this dead rose, in hopes that you might hug it, and while it's being hugged , it feels like it's in heaven

I want to give you this dead rose, in hopes that you keep it and the rose feels like it's your angel

I want to give you this dead rose, in hopes that might always know, that as long as it's around you , a dead rose will always feel alive.
