Summer Rose

A Love of my own

A beauty that graced the sky

My summer rose

She was an angel that lit up the sky so bright

That the gods above could see my happiness

All she wanted was my soul

A soul filled with scars

My heart

A heart so cold and black

That no rainbow could brighten its gothic colors

She wanted to spend every once of air

Every minute of every hour

Every hour of everyday with me

She smiled the most beautiful smile

A smile that melted the pain away

Every time we kissed it felt like the skies opened for the very first time

Bringing hope to my soul

Her eyes were filled with love

But I could not see it

For I was bound to my miserable sadness

My walls blocked me from the world

She fought so hard to bring them down

But they made my rose lose her beautiful colors

Making her as dark as death

And made me trapped and alone

My summer rose loved thee so

But I could not love her

These walls forced my rose away from me

I was in love with my sadness and the darkness that surrounded me

It was because of my disease

That my summer rose is gone
