DarkPoetry -|- Echoes of Orpheus -|- A Black Rose, For You

A Black Rose, For You

Enough of poetry
Enough of Prose
I give to you now
This exquisite black rose

Watered with love
By these words I compose
Planted in your heart
Watch as it grows

It grows on the graves
Of past flowers which tried
Your soil is poison
To those who have lied

Rare and divine
Black roses are few
Watch it become
As flawless as you

From this stage on your heart
I make my debut
This black rose represents
A love that is true

~Forever Yours~
