The Red Rose of Eternal Love - Part 1

Here I sit musing Alone, except for pinot noir I take out a knife To pierce my heart And let the blood flow into a dish Now I have the ink to write I can barely breathe So I must be fast with pen As I etch out my dreams on paper Blood tells the story of my life The redness of my desires is now known to you I have stained the paper with a crimson tear For this I am sorry I have smeared this declaration Of my undying love Even a teardrop, can not destroy My everlasting hope That you know I love you

I love this and the second half but I'm curious why not merge them together to make them one write.
