Black love

You meant everything to me
But the last day
You went away

That same last day
You gave me a rose
As red as our love was

When I wanted to tell you
That I'd love you until eternity
You pushed your finger on my lips

And said
Sorry, it's over now
I can't take this anymore

I still see you in my mind
Running away that moment
Running... far, far away from me

The first tear started to roll
It dropped on the rose
When I looked at it

I discovered
It was slowly turning black
As black as our love was
