A rose reflects, time passes by
Seconds tick, with no reason why
Midnight approaches, stands still and then
Begins its same path, over again
When petals wilt, the memories, forlorn
My lonely heart bleeds, cut by a thorn

The hour glass now cracked
His time, at last, has run out
Words unspoken, stacked
Bound between the leather
He’d let no else reveal
Verses he once wrote to her
Feelings kept concealed
Hidden in the pages
His true love for only one
Scratched upon the parchment
Until his day was done

Come closer, I’ll not bite you
That’s really quite absurd
Can’t you see from the look in my eye?
I am no ordinary bird
My feathers shine in ebony
The blackest you will ever see
I am not the raven spoken of
The one Edgar Allan knew
I really am quite different
I know this to be true
Though dark am I, as the evening sky
You’ll feel me near, as my wings fly by
Duck your head, protect your hair
The world above is mine
I’ll fly by you, without a care
I’m simply quite divine
Onyx, against the leaves of green
The most beautiful bird you’ve ever seen
No need to be frightened of me
If you stay in the distance, in fact
Shoo me away, and off I’ll go
But you can bet, one day, I’ll be back
