"Give me a red rose," she cried, "and I will sing you my sweetest song."

But the Tree shook its head.

"My roses are red," it answered, "as red as the feet of the dove, and redder than the great fans of coral that wave and wave in the ocean-cavern. But the winter has chilled my veins, and the frost has nipped my buds, and the storm has broken my branches, and I shall have no roses at all this year."

"One red rose is all I want," cried the Nightingale, "only one red rose! Is there no way by which I can get it?"

"There is a way," answered the Tree; "but it is so terrible that I dare not tell it to you."

"Tell it to me," said the Nightingale, "I am not afraid."

"If you want a red rose," said the Tree, "you must build it out of music by moonlight, and stain it with your own heart's-blood. You must sing to me with your breast against a thorn. All night long you must sing to me, and the thorn must pierce your heart, and your life-blood must flow into my veins, and become mine."

"Death is a great price to pay for a red rose," cried the Nightingale, "and Life is very dear to all. It is pleasant to sit in the green wood, and to watch the Sun in his chariot of gold, and the Moon in her chariot of pearl. Sweet is the scent of the hawthorn, and sweet are the bluebells that hide in the valley, and the heather that blows on the hill. Yet Love is better than Life, and what is the heart of a bird compared to the heart of a man?"

-Oscar Wilde, The Nightingale and the Rose

Making contact gets harder
As the silence grows longer
And why would you think of me?
When you were not the one in love?
When you were not the dreamer?
When you were just the dream?

I'm under no illusion
As to what I meant to you;
But you made an impression
And sometimes, I still feel the bruise.

-Trembling Blue Stars, "Sometimes I Still Feel The Bruise"

Try as he might, the roses never grow red, and the second teacup goes unused.

And you will break my back for all the burdens I lay upon it
But I will never blame you for those bees inside this bonnet

And my lungs will grow cancers
And my back it will grow achy
I will buy us an acre
Of some land in the city
We could live there together
Or I'll live alone, less happy,
But I'll live.
Unfortunately.

-AJJ, "Love in the Time of Human Papillomavirus"
