Red Rose (and the dragon)

Beautiful rose!
But why the dragon?
Is it the truth of the subtle expression,
That is causing me so much fascination?

My heart says she is innocent
My brain says she is a bitch
Oh! my poor soul,
now it know whats its like sandwich

Whenever I do something, my heart says is bad,
I ask back, will it make her happy or sad?
"She doesn't care, you fool" shouts my brain,
I try not to cry, but it goes in vein

Who will love me, I have lost all my faith
O God! keep her alive, else who will wish for my death

Break my heart, still you won't find any pain
Make me cry once, you will never get me to smile again...
