Rose Colored Lenses

From what I've learned about her

she is a bit dark,
broody,
and jaded.

Yesterday I closed my eyes and she dreamt my father dying.

I introduced myself as Jasmine
and
Lily... Sometimes.

and the man in the dream
as our father ... Sometimes.

She seemed indifferent to our loss.
Shall I call her Rose?
