Beauty

Behold the Blood Rose;
She's such a delicate deception.
See how she smiles with such innocence,
While you ride the edge of a killing anger.
Bewitching Blood Rose;
Don't go seeking the wild flower stripped of thorns.
Wrapped in silken Darkness,
The truth lies hidden in her dreams.
Beloved Blood Rose;
She's stronger than she could ever believe.
And now she slips into Night's embrace,
While your whispers fade into screams.
