Acoustic Rose
If whom ever should take me out before I make my statement
Then Smile, for I am no longer here
I once was your angel submerged in sadness
I am now your rose meager and darkened
I am a chapter written
A sought after answer smitten
I speak when no other will listen
Because I know when it ends I beg upon the skies to glide low
You may kneel amongst the stairway to ask for me
You may journey through fire bitten smut to summon thee
Here I lie
After my flesh hours devour
Whisper if you will
For I now find myself at peace with songs
Below this casket of true lies
As a rose of absence I lay
Smiles equal tears
Ur Black Rose
