My Dear Rose

My dear beautiful Rose the sky becomes darker on this cold night . The world becomes grey but you shine ever so bright . Beauty in its purest form, as the shadows crept into my life I became my darkness ... A demon was born, Tho to you there was no evil in sight ; You gave up a few of your petals to help me through the storm . In the end on that dark cold night, You let me pick you from the dirt, killing you softly just so I could see the light .

Dark which is one of my favorites. Your closing perfect. Have read Poe? If not , I would advise doing so- as with your talent and poetic leanings Poe would be a great poet to read, enjoy and study. I myself, did just that 50 years ago and highly recommend it.. A fav... God bless...
