The black rose, how daringly beautiful

Breathes softly her sunlight

But only as theivery

Thirsty for blood,

For power unending

The black rose will feast

Devouring each smile

With her gossamer mask

Veiling her thorns

And her venomous past

"You're nothing," she whispers

"I'm here to help you.

I am the guillotine, so sudden, so sweet.

I am the noose, only deception beneath your feet.

I am the blade, the best of your foes.

I am the black rose, I am the black rose."
