Oh what stunning beauty my rose doth show,
the many colors that she does compose;
so deep in my heart i have chose to sow,
that vibrant love of my violet rose.

Though her beauty is great there is much more,
that wonderful soul receives many scorns;
thy cherish the so, it's never a chore,
true beauty is proven through life's many thorns.

Even though your freshness will slightly fade,
for times tight grip we are forever stained;
but in mine heart your true beauty is laid,
for your true color cannot be contained.

Your true beauty is hidden deep within,
with loves aging beauty, true therein.

The author's comments:
Obviously love is what inspired me to write this the best i could. The woman I love is, in my eyes, very attractive. But it's who she is that I find truly beautiful, that's why I love her. As time goes on and her outer beauty fades, our true love won't stop growing, and her true beauty will continue to grow. I won't think of what she feels she has lost, I'll see all the beauty she has gained.
