Dead rose petals

by Willow   May 4, 2007


Cover me in dead rose petals,
For I was once that blooming rose.
But now I am the dead petal,
That will no longer grow.

Close the lid upon the lace,
In which I now lay.
Watch that lace disappear,
As everyone begins to pray.

Feed me to the burning fire,
In which I will forever dance.
I will burn with no regrets,
As the fire swallow me with every prance.

Throw my remains to the wind,
And watch them twirl and whirl.
I am now this curious wind,
Who loves to spin and swirl.

Through you dreams, I shall run,
Trailing lace as I go.
Leaving behind faint memories,
Of the smile I shall never show.

    This is a real good poem you have captured death in a kind of absobant way.

    a little advice..

    Feed me to the burning fire,
    In which I will forever dance.
    I will burn with no regrets,
    And let the fire swallow me with every prance,

    The last line is too long, urm lets see how abouttttttt..

    Allow the fire to swallow my every prance,
