He Came With Black Roses
Blood curdling and mind churning
Cast beyond drowning sorrow and ever-terror
Some pseudo-world I find myself
This land of nightmares...
In dreams it haunts me
Yet in waking I still live it
Inside I can feel myself screaming,
By curiosity I wonder if anyone can hear this pain
Though in experience,
A complacent outside covers a devastated inside
Yet apathy by others nullifies anything that might be shown
By the fall within,
Into darker love I find myself
And within it can�t be undone
For when one loves another
And the other leads on...
He came with black roses
Then sheltered within thorny branches hidden;
A promise in his words
With apathy at his core
And fear in his heart
First, by the promise of grandeur was I fooled
Blinded by this moment,
In seconds forgot
As I wished to experience what was not for me
Becoming ensnared in a trap of his design
Until the stars themselves fell from heaven
And blotted out the light I knew
Back
