Destini Williams Poet I do not know?

Black Roses

Black roses
Crumbling
With every touch
Breaking down my walls
Loving you so much

Longing for those three words
You'll whisper in my ear
But you still have yet to say them
In months
Or maybe years

Love is unpredictable
Just like you
You're different than the others
No lies
Only the truth

Black roses
The fruity scent is gone
But I still keep them in a china vase
Hoping that you'll return
And wipe the frozen tears from my face
