I know it’s the afternoon
I know the sun exists
Though what I see
Only lives a lack of color
A lack of color
That’s so unappealing
Yet so striking
It screams without a soul
......
The rose is black
it’s petals bleed
Nurtured from a
poisoned seed
Thorns that prick an
innocent soul
Extracting parts from the
whole
Stem so long, sinuous
beauty disingenuous
