Scarlet's Roses

Moonlight shines down on your face, I see stars of crimson, and they bleed like lovely scarlet roses, as the thorns of you have pierced deep into my skin

Do you see the blood gushing from my eyes? It's like witchcraft and spells being cast from my veins!

You see me bleeding from my dreary soul, I beg you for only a portion of your mercy, as your blackened heart shames me into chains of darkness

Do you feel my broken shards? It's you, the devil's mistress, sucking my soul dry and feeding from my cold dead heart!

Your darkness glimmers like a silver light, I feel your thorns gashing into my heart, as you seek me out to banish me, from my only true love

Do you hear the echoes from my screams? It's poisonous, these needles inflicted into my withered skin!

My sins have caused this bitter strife and misery, I am on my knees casting the demons from my head, as you see the scarlet tears seeping from my eyes

Do you wish me death? It's killing me, my love, for I am at all of your mercy with knives carving rituals into my soul!

Your scarlet roses are left hanging, from my rotten vines, I know these are thorns of blasphemous deeds, as you see the heart of a murderous soul

Do you remember me, my love, when I killed you beneath the willow tree? It's you, I watched for days before slashing my mark into your worthless heart!

Now, It is me, at your mercy! How was I to ever know? I, a serial killer, captured a demonic witch of a soul!

We shall both see eternal darkness together, my love. Your spells have forever enchanted me. My sweet, sweet, Scarlet, I still have my thorns wrapped around your pretty little heart!
