this is the original version of my other poem...

roses tarnish under the sun
they wither in its heat
their petals slowly float away
and settle at your feet

they've given you a sacrifice
in tribute to your birth
which you were sent to sactify
and so you graced the earth

you inspire heaven's hopefuls
and jelousies arise
for your beauty goes unrivaled
and burns the common eyes

what force has joined us hand in hand
i owe my life to thee
for now we are forever linked
in lover's harmony

so to the sacrificial rose
to heavens up above
they have blessed both you and i
by giving us our love

Very lovely. I like it when people use "thee" in poems. I do it a lot. it sounds so much nicer than "you" and is much more romantic.

This is definitely a poem worth putting in a greeting card, it's so beautiful...remarkable job you've done here, sorrow! Such an upbeat poem for someone with a nickname like that, I like it!  
Keep up the great work!
