Rose Requiem
Reflection
In twilight's hush, where shadows play,
A vision of beauty drifts away,
Amidst the roses, red as love's last sigh,
A maiden's face, a monochrome sky.
Her eyes, closed to the world's loud din,
Drink in the silence, and the roses' kin,
Their petals soft as the whispers of the night,
Enfold her, a gentle, loving light.
In this still moment, she is free to be,
A roseate soul, wild and carefree,
The red blooms, like passion's burning fire,
Illuminate her heart, her deepest desire.
In this dark world, she shines so bright,
A monochrome beauty, bathed in roseate light,
A fleeting glimpse of peace, a moment's rest,
In the rose's cradle, she is blessed.
