Death in Paradise



We lay in a bed of roses

Ignorance.

We forgot about the thrones

Naive.

They stabbed your back

Instant.

And slit your throat

Pain.

Your heart lies beating in the grass

Idle.

Warm blood dyes the petals

Soft.

I hold your hand

Cold.

You smile at me

Habituate.

You tie a rose around my neck

Choke.

Blood runs down

Kill.

We lay in a bed of roses.

Dead.
