Roses

Breaking dawn
white roses in your palm

with arrows in my heart
and forever in you tears
i’m deafened by your heartbeat
it silences my fears

but with distance upon distance
you’re fading from my sight
there’s no one here to hold me back
hold me in the light

dark is near, the sky is gray
all from words you wouldn’t say

night has fallen
i see black roses lain on my bed.
