Laid To Rest
Laid upon the jagged edge of the cliff
Winds piercing through its fleshy body
Singled out, cast aside are black roses
As the cold wind blows they become numb
Thorns losing their point, no view felt
Their petals stiffen as life is drained
Pigments of faith seeps from their stem
Fallen into the sadness life's obscurity
Root rot, damages within by salty tears
Cold north winds slicing at its fragility
Alone, trapped in this desolate nothingness
Sacrificing bouquet in complete oblivion
Teetering on the brink of its extinction
Once these petals were kissed by pastels
Memories gliding upon this chilling breeze
No longer alone and finally without pain
Private Challenge
Hostess:Starstruck13
Phrase:Black Roses,as the cold north wind blows
