O Care, One of My Deepest Cares


O Care, one of my deepest Cares,

How I long and drive to hold you high.

I love you truly, deeply, and surly

Respecting your wishes while

Protecting your soul.

 

You show me compassion,

And I return it tenfold.

So our bond grows,

And Roses with no foes

Bind our Hearts to beauty,

Not to scars of pain.

 

A Scarlet Queen I honest am,

Red touching my black.

I venom lack when I am with you.

Yet I change Scarlet to Coral,

Red touching yellow

To harm a Fellow if,

To tear the vines they try.

 

You a star in my empty sky,

Shining through but not anew.

Even with a cloud division,

Your light so bright,

It pierces my night,

Saving me from Hellhounds might.

 

O Care, one of my deepest Cares,

How we hold each other high.

Not for gain or reighn,

Those thoughts slain.

Because we love one another the same.
