A black rose
Once enchanted and beautiful.
Once sweet-smelling and filled with love.
It's now,
dark,
withered,
and tormented.
All of the love and beauty has escaped it.
It's now empty.
This rose has lost it's soul.

A drop is hanging from a petal

The rain is pouring down
And the rose withers in sorrow
Washing away it's life
Cleansing itself for the sadness

The red rose is turning black

The Bath

I step into the marble bathtub
Surrounded by black candles
I pick up my bottle of red wine
Pour myself a glass
And listen to Peter Steele sing to me
As he says, am I good enough for you
I sip from my glass
And wonder if am good enough for anyone
I don't seem to be
I live in a world that steps all over me
As if I am the root of all that's evil
I pour myself another glass
The only thing I can do now is keep drinking
To ease the pain
To bring on the darkness
So that I can be truly happy
Even if only for a short time
But I can't forget Peter's words
Am I good enough for you ?

Life is
When your foundation
Yields
And you fall
Deeper and deeper
Into your misery
For each breath
You take

Life is
When you're going blind
From your tears
And wander
Deeper and deeper
Into your sorrows
For each mile
You travel

Life is
When your feet
Won't carry you
And you sink
Deeper and deeper
Into your depression
For each step
You take

Life is
The time it takes
To die...
