I paint the roses

I paint the roses red

I dare not to stop

Or waste a drop

So I let the blood be spread

And hope that I'm not already dead

 

No I'm not dieing,

I'm flying

Getting higher with each paint stroke

I sink and float

 

I didn't realize it could be like this

Love with an agonizing twist

I paint another stroke and hiss..

But if this is my faith I'll enjoy it

 

The royalty of hearts theartens

OFF WITH HER HEAD!

I laugh ...

As I paint the roses red
