Tainted Rose
Only a vision of beauty…is what they all adore.
Darkness and insanity… they choose to ignore.
Just like a rose…my beauty will fade.
Leaving me with nothing but shades of gray.
Drifting away from an empty shell.
Lifeless inside…but no one could tell.
Just like a rose…my heart will break.
Leaving nothing for you to take…
Just like a rose…I’ll entirely fade
Leaving you memories of nothing but pain.
Author's Note- Alright this is actually the first poem ever that rhymed in my collections of poetry. This was probably written a month ago, while in Lit class. I was bored from the lecture and decided to write this.
