I Never Promised You A Rose Garden

Pick a petal
Watch it fall
One by one
All for all

Play the game
An empty stem
The answer known
He still loves them

A broken flower
Still bears thorns
A rose is lost
A garden born

Crimson lawns
Remind one thing
From dark November
The light of spring

* In remembrance of the assassinations of 6 priests, their maid and her daughter on Nov 16. 1989, who died giving a voice to those who had none.
