Bed of Black Roses (Kissing Stars)

poem by: Amanda Day
Written on Mar 11, 2014

Kissing the stars,
I can't imagine a death more
vibrant,
more loud and touching
than to die in the hands of
my love, 
laying in my bed of 
black roses,
red turns to death,
wallows in the pain
and grows with the tears 
of the sorrowful 
ravens,
petals dance upon my lips,
as to chain me to the ground
by the belief's,
trying to let go and fly up the the blue
sky,
tasting the clouds I can't imagine,
my love,
being a part from you,
from your brow eyes
and black skin,
I could never imagine
cutting our ties just so that I could
breathe,
nothing would make me even see the 
sun if I couldn't
feel you,
laying there on the bed of
black roses
