Black Rose
By HeadpatSlut
Black Rose
A rose that was for my love picked-
A token for Her love to me-
The scarlet rose by serpent licked-
The beauty she could see.
Careful then I took the plant-
And plucked it from the vine-
To save myself from mental rant-
I took her hand in mine.
“I give to thee this Rose of Black,”
Proposed I thus to her-
The momentary looking back-
Young lovers
that we were.
The Rose was black and grown in hate-
The
vines that have grown to cover-
My love for her was come too late-
The Death of my first lover.
