black rose


what if you were given a rose
a black rose
one that seems like it could cut you
just by staring at it
it would probably be so beautiful
that no one
not even you
could resist its beauty
what could you do
if you were caught by its beauty
i know what you would do
for i was once
in the same situation as you
