Bring scarlet roses smeared in my own blood
Place them by my side, sing me an epitaph
of memories you want destroyed and gone.
Forever, to a place where I cease to exist.

Rain me a hatred I don't deserve.
Brandish words sharper than any sword
as you pierce them right through my heart.
Lay me cold without warmth, to rot.

Shrivel me like plants parched for water.
Cut me off from my roots, ruin me in loneliness.
Where I can't see, sense or feel.
Just a permanent silence for eternity.
