Ten black roses lay
In silence within my heart
Cold like the icy shadows of midnight
Longing to wither, to rip apart

Rose one hides your memories
And two catches my falling tears
Three takes away all realities
And four...reminds me of all my fears

Five will calm me when I'm lost
Six will give me comfort
Seven pretends I like the pain
And eight enjoys my hurt

Nine will bring you back to me
And ten...awakens me from this dream

Each petal falls helplessly to the floor
As I spare one last painful glance at the door

Still your gone, never to return
So I close my eyes and drift back
To a dark land of no concern
A world of death...evil...all is black
