I like to think that love is like a rose. A rose that is beginning to sprout is like a person feeling love for the first time. It will grow in time as the couples interact and along the way, they may hurt themselves by the thorns of pain and misunderstanding. But it is all worth it to see the rose in full bloom as the two share their true love. What happens after that is unknown. The rose may last forever and create others, or it may wither away and start anew. Michelle Goncalves

The rose of love is a metaphor for the blossoming of a romance. It represents the beginning of a relationship. It may be blossoming now, but it has been growing for years, if not decades. Eventually, it will reach full bloom and the couple will share their true feelings with each other.
