Black petals
On that dead, withered rose.
She tries to care,
But loneliness is all she knows.

Sometimes she thinks to the past
Looking for answers there
But even those did not last
So why should she even care.

When she gets down and sad
She seems to have only one friend.
The blade, something so bad
She hopes it will bring forth the end.

Life is a game with an end.
Why can't she just win for once and earn her stupid prize??!
She longs for the end, and hopefully soon, some sleep!!!!

When she dies, she wants but one thing:
Black petals from a dead, withered rose.
