Black Rose

Black Rose

Black is beautiful

But even if you chose such prose

I do suppose that you might be one that knows

If you delight in something bright

Then this may not be what you chose

Try to smell it with your nose

Water one with a hose

There might be a time where one will make you doze

Before we close

I would just like to say that whether or not you have to pay

If you receive a black rose

It might be the way it goes

You will definitely doze

Because this is the life you chose

For those that know

This could be the final blow

When you receive a black rose
