The Black Rose
 
A black rose
A gift of love or a gift of death
It’s what my angel gave to me
I don’t know but I’ll soon see
 
He holds me in his arms
Being this close I know I’ll be in harm
His whispers softly caress my ear
But I don’t care, I want him hear
 
He’s my angel of death
And I’m willing to sacrifice my every breath
I know our love can’t be forever
But I’ll be happy as long as when I leave we’re together
 
I never wanted to leave here
Stay by my side
I feel bound to you by love and fear
 
He pulls me closely to his chest
Gasping I can feel my last breath
Clinging to him I feel tears in my eyes
Knowing I’ll never have time to say goodbye
 
The darkness encases my body and mind
Death is ready to make its bind
 
Knowing this would be costly
I pulled him closely kissing him urgently
And with that last kiss he killed me softly

LOL I totally agree with Alice Oiseau about the Phantom of the Opera. It did kind of make me think of that! But I really loved this poem, another spectacular piece of work. Emotion was fabulous! You are very amazing:) Can't wait to read more of your stuff! :D
