Rose Petals Died Black

He gave her this rose the petals dyed black told her to always smile and not to ever look back.

He kissed away her tears and said his final goodbyes she never knew but soon he would die.

She let go of his hand the ones that were so cold the ones with the memories the truth they always told.

He walked home alone with her picture in his hands knowing what he was about to do the emptiness was taking a stand.

But still his life passed by his suicide so hollow the path he took to happiness the tears so shallow.

She found him there on the cold floor alone the black eye liner fading dry tears were shown.

The crimson bleeding the photo in his hands gripped tight looking up to the heavens, this life alone she couldnt fight.

Days later she stood there trembling beside his grave, looking up to the sky the tears she couldnt save.

She walked home alone with his picture in her grasp, this pain was unbearable the tears still continued to last.

She ached for days and days finally she gave up all hope inside writing her final goodbye for that was her dreaded suicide.

She laid there alone with his picture close to her heart for she was shattered her life torn apart.

The rose still lays there its petals dyed black between there graves for they had the courage to never look back.
