When the Last Rose Petal Falls
When the Last Rose Petal Falls
Death blooms with each rose,
As beauty comes, then dies away,
It falls to the benumbing ground,
Into an abyss filled with formidable sounds
Blowing softly, the wind calls my name
Rose petals fall and storms erupt and flood into my brain
When the last petal clings, wilted to the thorned stem
Will I regret the paths that I have treaded?
Will I forget the things I once dreaded?
Will I forgive my own mistakes, or curse my name in loathing vain?
Will I have remorse for not ever hugging my mother?
Will I have a sudden pang for only silently forgiving my brother?
Will I have afflictions
