Tear drops fall, like rose petals drenched in Crimson.
Because fear trembles in the soul of a man, unable to hold his son.
While the heat of pressure burns a child, awaiting the arrival of her report-card.
And while an eager teen gets dropped by the one he loves, for another.
And as a family stands with a 'welcome home' sign in a crowd, waiting for their loving father to return home from war to find he has been lost in battle.
But as each petal hits the ground, a new rose blooms.
And happiness is there.
Because the soul of the man is overjoyed when his son leaps into his arms.
And when her report- card shows A's and B's, the pressure is released and she is free.
And when his best friend kisses his forehead and holds him tight, telling him that she has always loved him.
And when the hope of this family is lost, their father makes a suprise entrance, for his army buddies played a cruel joke on them.
Hope falls and hope blooms.
Just as petals covered in crimson sugar.
