Doubtful Love

She held a rose within her palm

As she kissed it tenderly,

Then she rubbed the petals loose

So each one could fly free.



Your love she cherished longingly

Till your fickle heart did roam,

That rose she grew for you

Will never find another home.



You discarded her without a thought

For face beauty you`d just met,

You yet may live to doubt your deed

Then live with much regret.



Her love for you has also flown

Far beyond recall,

Now as she views the petals

She wonders, did she love you at all.



So, smugly travel on your way

Don`t take a backward glance,

Be assured, she`s happy now

It could be you that`s lost your chance.
