Goodnight My Lovely Rose

It's time to say goodnight, my lovely rose.

Last night, they came in to diagnose.

And while you may be doleful, I suppose

It was my fault that I froze.

But if you may, at least let me propose:

Shed your extra layer of clothes

(But do not overexpose).

I say goodnight, my lovely rose

Because I am beginning to doze.

All I want from you is to compose

Somewhere for just the two of us; a cosmos,

I suppose.

Goodnight, my lovely rose.

Diagnosed: Comatose.
