Dying Rose
There is not enough water in the world
To save my dying rose
She’s already crumpled up
And too dry to handle.
Falling apart she is
There is no hope for her
The sun can no longer shine
Her petals are turning black
She escaped my energy
Leaving herself blank
She is a dying rose
Rejecting herself to recover
Regretful burdens
I let her collapse
She sees the darkness
Again she’s spiritless.
