First love never dies, but true love can bury it alive


A single White Rose to represent my love
A single black Rose to represent forever
A single White Rose sparkles above
While a single black Rose never leaves, never

My first love, the White Rose, is the key to my affection
While the black Rose fights for my happiness
The White Rose, my dream, is living perfection
Yet I love the black Rose not any less

The White Rose is innocent and pure like a child
It's petals a pleasure to touch and see
Whereas the black Rose is impatient and wild
But never loses faith in me

As I ponder and question the two
Racking my brains for an answer
Finding which thorn won't cut through
The ballerina or the break dancer

One with poise, grace, and style
The other nothing but improvisation
The first, too proud, will only stay awhile
While the black would stay till the end of creation

Alone, in tears, I stop my cries
As the black Rose overpowers the White
Because first love never dies
But true love can bury it alive
