Shadows threaten to
Overtake her,
As an intimidating storm
Encircles her and lets its incessant rains
Cascade around her frail body.
She watches as the last rays of the sunset
Whip away the last rays of her sanity
And pull them behind the horizon.
She is left with nothing but instability.
Falling to her knees,
She weeps upon his grave
And lets the sweet fragrance of
Roses
Fill her senses.
He was her everything, and he
Left her alone in the
whirlwind of this world.
She weeps for their past,
She weeps for his absence,
She weeps for her own loneliness.
Picking at the bundle of red roses,
She lets the tears fall willingly,
And does not notice how her
Tears have turned
the petals a stunning white.
When she picks her head up and rests it
Upon the gravestone,
She drops the colorless roses
onto the grass
And she notices that newfound
Lack of color in the flowers.
She notes how colorless and dull her
Life now is.
She falls asleep under the stars,
But not before
Staring fondly at the exquisite
Epitaph
He asked be
Carved elegantly into the cold marble
In honor of them.
"Sweet dreams, my love, for I may not
Be able to cradle you here,
But our dreams will forever hold
limitless Possibilities of our
Timeless affections."
